The speech ,in Memorial Hall, which war a general discussion of the mission of the, college, evoked the greatest enthusiasm. Besides the 1 more pretentious events to day, the President's programme Included a <brief visit to the Germanic Museum, where he sent a cablegram to the Ger man Emperor, thanking him for his gifts to Harvard, luncheon at the Porcelain Clnb and a visit to the Chief Marshal's headquarters in University Hall, tea at] *he residence of Professor Albert Bush nell Hart and a dinner at the Somerset Club.
