Board. Quiet in expression of judg-
ment, his spirit was so broad, his judg-
ment so keen, and his motives so lofty
and patriotic that his counsels, when he
chose to express them, compelled
respect. He had an unfaling sense for
the right word at the right time. His
gifts to the college, generous and wise,
were bestowed at such times and in such
manner as greatly to increase their use

his name and the fund for its preserva-

benefactions to this institution. He was

A HUDSON PROFEssORsHlP.

A start has been made on a new en-
dowment fund for Middebury College,
a Professorship in English Literature
to bear the name of Henry Norman
Hudson, the Shakespearean critic, who
graduated seventy-five years ago. Or.
Hudson is called Middlebury's greatest
graduate in the field of pure letters and
a chair in his honor would be very APP
propriate.
The suggestion of such a Professor
ship was made by Prof Wright and the
alumni have welcomed the opportunity
to recognize in this way his thirty years
of service. Pledges of about S., 600 have
been received already.
In letter outlining the proposal to
the Alumni, President Thomas said:
"Middebury College has never had
an endowed chair of English literature.
For an institution which has magnified
letters as ours has done, the fact is I'M
fortunately notable. Hough, Meacham,
Boardman, Kellogg, Brainerd, and
Wright have eXpounded the masters of
the English speech in our class-rooms
and created an invaluable literary ira
dition in the College, but no one has
come forward to establish the work
upon permanent basis.
This Commencement marks the
thirtieth anniversary of the teaching of
English in Middlebury by Professor
Wright. We owe to him a token of our
gratitude, honor, and affection | have
certain knowledge that anything per,
sonal would be displeasing, but that
nothing would give him greater salts
faction than the founding of this chair.
1t would be especially grateful to him if
his own pupils-a large fraction of our
living graduates - had each at least
some part.
ITO secure that result, it has beer
proposed to divide the requisite sum,
$50, 600, into $50 units, and extend the
payments over five years. 1t is hoped
that every one will take at least one
unit, and that enough will take more tc
complete the fund. -

CLASS OF 80 WINS CUP.

The Mccullough Cup, presented some
years ago by the late Ex-Governor John
G.. Mccullough, to be inscribed each
commencement with the name of the
class having the largest percentage of
graduates back, was won by the class

anniversary, and had been making earn
est efforts for over year to get out a
large attendance at this commencement.
Every graduate but two was present.
and they We're unavoidably detained at
the last moment 80 was always a
strenuous class, night and day, and
generally accomplished what she set out
to do.
The big 80 banner of striking green
and yellow was prominent sight at the
various commencement features. The
same banner was carried at the inaugu-
ration in 1908.
The members of the class present
were Miss Harriette +. Bolton, Private

Middlebury College has just had a
great Commencement. Not since the
centennial of 1900 have so many alumni
returned and not even then was
there such enthusiasm. The extensive
building operations in progress on the
hill, the realization Of the extent of the
Battell bequest from the trip to Bread
Loaf. the graduation OF the largest
class in the history of the college, the
gift of chime Of bells for the Mead
Memorial chapel and of tablet in
memory of Silas Wright, the appropriate
honorary degrees all combined to make
the occasion notable one. Middle
burys star is certainly in the ascendant
and never before did the future look so
bright

TRIBUTES TO JOSEPH BAT
TELL AND JOHN G. NC
CULUOUGH.

Two names spoken frequently at the
commencement exercises were those of
Mr.. Battell and Ex-Governor McCul-
Tough both benefactors of the college
who have recent y passed away. This
being the first meeting of the Corpora
tion since the death of these two
trustees, resolutions of respect for each
of them were spread upon the minutes.
That concerning Mr.. Battel was as
folows:-
In the death of Joseph Battell,
which occurred on February %, 1915, in
the city of Washington, our college has
sustained the loss of one of her most
devoted and generous friends. Both in
personality and public service Mr..
Battell was so unique that ordinary eX-
pressions of appreciation fail to do JUS
tce to his memory. He was an idealist.
a lover of the beautiful in nature, in
art, in music, and in literature. Few
men were more largely guided by
wholesome and patriotic sentiment. He
possessed in rare degree sentiment for
the town in which he spent his life, its
history and tradition, its natural beauty
and its public improvement, and no
citizen of the town has ever done more,
or indeed as much, to improve and
beautify the village in which our col
lege is located. He was actuated also
by earnest patriotic sentiment toward
his native State, its natural beauties,
its worthy history, its great men. The
love he bore the wooded mountains of
Vermont, which led him to acquire large
portions of them for the protection of
their native forests, without thought of
profit, marks Mr.. Battell as one of the
most far-sighted. noble-hearted men
who ever blessed the commonwealth,
and the generosity in which he en-
trusted them for perpetual preserva-
ton and improvement to the United
States, the State of Vermont, and this
college, will preserve his memory in
lasting gratitude and honor. He has
left behind him an example of public
service, of persistent continuance in
high purpos of usefulness, of generous
regard for the welfare of future gen
erations, which his associates recognize
with deep gratitude and sincere honor. -
In memory of Ex-Governor McCul-
Tough the Corporation minutes will
record the following
Whereas, we have lost from our
number one of the nest loyal and help
full of the friends of Middlebury College,
Hon. John G. Mccullough, therefore
''Be it resolved, That we place upon
our minutes a testimony to our appre-
citation of the strength and worth of his
character and of thei unique value of
his generous services to our institution.
Governor Mccullough exerted master
al influence in the deliberations of this

COMMENCEMENT DINNER

Like all other exercises of this Com
mencement the corporation dinner fol-
lowing the graduation exercises was
largely attended and marked by enthu-
siasm. President Thomas, who presid-
ed, voiced the general feeling when he
said that the enthusiasm of this Com
mencement was not of the manufactured
variety.
Thea first speaker was Willard r.
Cray, rs, who expressed his apprecia-
ton of the degree conferred upon him
and his pleasure in witnessing so many
evidences of progress in the college.
Rev. A. p Pratt of Bellows Falls
testified to the large influence of Mid
dlebury in the State, and Rev. John w.
Chapman spoke in praise of some of the
studies of the old curriculum. The
alumni were given a chance to show
their approval of the comforting of a
degree upon Professor Wright, which
theyl improved heartily. Mr. Darwin
P. Kingsley paid generous tribute, as
graduate Of the University of Yer
mont, to the educational soundness of
Middlebury College.
The exercises eliminated in the pre-
sentation of a bronze tablet commem-
Grating the one hundredth anniversary
of the graduation of Silas Wright. The
presentation was made in finished anc
scholarly historical address by Hon.
Harrington Putnam, Judge of the APP.
pelate Division of the Supreme Court
of New York. The inscription on the
tablet, which will be placed in the
chapel, is

FRIDAY, JUNE IS, 1915.

An impressive ceremony was enacted
at Bread Loaf at the close of the Alumni
exercises Tuesday, after stanza of
"America', as the audience were
gathered about the porch of the Inn
where Joseph Battell for forty years
had sounded the bugle to assemble his
guests, a clear-toned cornet blew the
plaintive notes of TAPS. Heads IN
covered unconsciously and tears stood
in many eyes.
