He declared that It was with great reluctance and deep regret that he was leaving Washington. Henry P. Blair, president of the board of education, urged the erection of a new high school to supplant the present one. He said he believed that it the proper fa cilities were offered the enrollment would be increased to $00 or 1.000 pupils. Mr. Blair stated that he believed there was a splendid chance of Congress appro priating the SIjO.OOO which has been re quested for the purpose of purchasing the site for the new buildings.

Its president, Edward H. Clement, of Boston, Mass., said: "This congress has brought together a strong body of people, strong In the hope of regulating vivisection in the United States of America. For my part I would like to see It abolished, but of course strict restriction, so to speak, will satisfy us for the present. The anti-vlvlsectlon movement has taken- great noia in Eng land, and Is winning strong and wonder ful support In the United States. "Most of the vivisection practiced .to day Is perfectly barren work and incurs useless torture. Every practitioner of vivisection should be known to author! ties, and his efforts closely watched for Illegal and Inhuman practices. "There can be no doubt but that human vivisection, so far as experimenting with serum, serms. and vaccines are con cerned. Is extensively employed on the quiet In hospitals all over the world. The evidences of this can be found In the reports of medical and other learned so cieties whicn the general puoiic seiaora reads. "For every triumph of a serum there has been scores of failures at a cost of human and other life. Many Interesting delegates are here from foreign countries. Among them is Miss Llnd at Hageby. of London England, who recently conducted a fa mous libel case for the purpose ot ven- tlllatlnir the subject of vivisection. Speaking of this case last nignt, ane said: "This trial, at which I acted as my own lawyer. lasted sixteen days. stirred all England. Although I lost the case technically. I expected to do so. and It bared the cold fscts to every one who could read the newspapers In England. Newspapers can accomplish much good In this work."

"They tell you that foreign languages are musical; and tnat tne English lan guage is Incapable of high, aristlc musi cal expression. Nothing could be fur ther from the truth." 'Of course almost every well-known opera is written In Italian. French, or German. And most of the European teachers or singing are ot thoso nation alities. All this has kept the English language In the background. This wrong. English is tne real ianguago for song."
