Mrs. Wilson shook hands.
Tha. was the one outstanding fea-

In fact the whole subject of shaking
hands is in more or less indefinite
condition in fashionable society. There
are many women of good social posi-
ton who do not shake hands if ii can
be avoided They maintain that Il bow
and a smile are sufficient greeting. If
a woman makes no move toward ex-
tending her hand it is not good form to

hope had been entertained by her people that
she would ever be we'll. and a disease which
was beyond surgical and medical aid caused
her death. She was loyal wife; always in.

four institutions of learning which has
been of the greatest service to America.

They could give her house for her
beautiful daughters and maybe another
for her noble sons. They could give her
"a great hall wherein to entertain her
multitude of friends and they could
sweetly bless her ministering servants
who instruct. | almost wish that one
or two had grown rich, provided they
had not departed from the teachings of
their mother.
" Naturally one sees visions of the
future Willamette university in which
are all its present good and an added
power to make its service greater. 1
should like her standards of scholarship
and of Christian character to be so high
that her diploma everywhere would be
evidence of manhood and womanhood
which no other college anywhere could
excel. / should want her students to
be acquainted with science and history,
with mathematics and philosophy, with
languages and literature, with sociology
and politics as to be the leader in his
community. l should want him so to
have learned the mind and spirit of
Christ, SO to know and feel the needs
of men, so to be helpful and kind, so to
scOrn meanness and the lie, so to be
laughter of children as to be the richest
man in his community in the pleasures
of a clean soul.
~ should like campus beautiful
with buildings and flowers and green
grass enfolding the students in nflu-
ences ennobling and refining. should
like books and laboratories; and a me-
mortal hall TO Jason Lee who gave this
Northwest empire to the republic and
who saved it to Christian civilization
by founding Willamette.
~ should like great endowment in
order to be more just with faculty and
to make the equipment keep pace with
every need / should like the peopl of
all this trritory, and especially of Sa-
lem, to maintain a helpful pride in Will
lamette and the things for which she
stands.
Having this, I should want the num-
ber of students limited, these to be the
chosen spirits of the Northwest, as they
now are.
