COMMENCEMENT
College Closes 116th Year with Notable
Observation-Disclosures Over
New Buildings.

The opening of two large and beauti.
ful new buildings and the centennial Of
the birth Of John G, SAKE made the re-
cent commencement one Of the most
notable In the history of Middlebury
College, The town was filed with
guests, including the largest number Of
Alumni since 1900, The delight Of the
visitors over the magnificent additions
to the college equipment stirred a spirit
of enthusiasm which everyone could
feel The high merit of the various adj
dresses, the impressive dignity Of the
chapel dedication, and the presence Of
many distinguished guests combined to
raise the occasion to level not often
attained in academic gatherings. "The
best commencement ever attended"
was the word Of many an aumnus,
1t is impossible to say which Of the
many features was the most important
or excited the greatest interest. ANY
one of half dozen features would have
been sufficient to make the commence
ment notable. The address Of Mr..
Howard Elliott, President Of the New
Haven railroad, was a remarkable
utterance, which would have distin-
guished any gathering. The SAKE cen
tennial was worthily observed and the
remarks of his namesake were very
greatly enjoyed by an audience which
filled the Mccullough gymnasium. 1t
is safe to say that the chapel dedica-
ton was one of the most impressive

beautiful Green Mountain State,
Founded in 1900, Middlebury is not
so old, nor so large, as that college
which, until today, was the only one to
claim my loyal allegiance, - Harvard,
! am great believer in the usefulness
of the smaller colleges located at a
distance from congested centers Of pop
ulation, and near to Mother Earth, We
al remember the story Of Anteus, who
was so strong that he conquered all
who came against him, - how his
strength came from Mother Earth, and
how Hercules finally overcame him
when he lifted him from off the earth
and thus prevented him from renewing
his strength; and so it is important to
get back to Nature if we are to keep up
the virlity of the American people.
"Middlebury's catalogue for the year
just ending shows 32 names in the
teaching and administrative stats, 3i3
undergraduates from ~ States, and
foreign countries and l49 attending the
summer school, "a total of 1872. Mid
debury is showing a rational growth.
"The high character of Middlebury
graduates is shown by the fact that in
its first 100 years among its graduates
were 30 college Presidents, and 8 Govern
ors of States,
"To accomplish the results of the last
fifty years tireless energy AMI prodi-
gious work were necessary, work to
plan, work to execute, Because of the

functions ever held in the State of
Vermont No one who saw the little
grandson of Governor Mead take the
keys of the chapel across the chancel to
Governor Mead, or who heard the
student choir sing Lift up your Heads,
O ye Gates" will ever forget it. Hep
burn Hall, opened'on Tuesday, was the
admiration Of every visitor, as it was
realized how complete the new dormi-
tory is in all its features and how it
would surely increase the popularity of
the college.
The Register has not space for com
plete story of this great commence
ment. No attempt is made to narrate
the events in the order of their impor-
tance or their happening, and even, a
complete report could not convey the
spirit of rejoicing and enthusiasm which
characterized the various gatherings.
THE COMMENCEMENT DINNER.
Every place was taken at the dinner
following the graduation exercises and
many could not secure admission.
President Thomas presided and spoke
of his Joy in the prosperity of the col
ege and his strong hope for the future.
Aside from the address of Hon, John
G. SAKE, reported in another column,
Rev. Arthur H. Bradford of Rutland,
who had received the degree of Doctor
of Divinity, spoke of the strong position
of Middlebury in Vermont and paid
tribute to Governor Mead. He was
followed by Mr.. Howard Elliott, who
said in part;

thanks to the Trustees of Middlebury
College for the honor conferred on me
today by this, the oldest college in the

apparently unlimited natural resources
of our country and the great immigra-
ton, we have not thought sufficiently of
conditions that will confront US when
we are compelled to husband our re-
sources in order to compete with other
nations. These conditions now face u.s.
We surely can help ourselves it we try
to practice the od-fashioned character
istics that many are pleased to call New
England habits. These characteristics
and habits are not as prevalent as in
the old days, - traits that built up the
country from the Revolution to the
Civil War, and which | am glad to
know Middlebury College encourages.
"As your catalogue points out, the
location of the college favors economy,
"a sterling habit that seems to be lost
sight of in this period of extravaganza,
due, doubtless, to the great increase in
wealth. We are eXtravagant as indi-

that spirit. AS result, we are piling

many county and town, and the State
and nation for years to come.
"The college in the country has
direct influence for sane and economical
living which is an offset to the extrava-
gance of the great cities.
There is another habit that is not so
prevalent as formerly the habit of
work. Those who made the American
nation what it is today worked long and
hard. The spirit of hard work now
seems to be lacking and we hear con-
stantly that eight hours or less work a
day is all that strong, healthy man
