The celebration of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of its founding as Queens College, 1766-1916 . e the study of commercialpomology, of microscopic petrography, of mineralogy, oftoxicology, or of microbiology of soils must still have inthat diet a sprinkling of English, of literature, of history,and of economics. In assimilating that diet, let us earn-estly and profoundly hope he learns how to read, towrite, and to spell! I turn to the list of the Faculty and I find here theProfessor of Agriculture neighboring the Professor ofLogic and Mental Philosophy, let us hope on a perfectlyneutral basis. Still further I find that Rutgers College,faithful to tradition, even in the practical present, sup-ports a Professor of Latin and also a Professor of Greek,thereby demonstrating that Rutgers for one does not rankthese professorships with the dodo and other extinctspecies. Therefore, Mr. President, because Rutgers answers sonobly the call to public service as exemplified in a taxsupported institution, because she responds so efficientlyin the adjustment of the curriculum to human needs, and. SATURDAY, OCTOBER FOURTEENTH 125 because she has maintained so courageously the ulti-mately satisfying element in education while adding thepresently profitable, I greet her with a hearty *Welldone^ and wish her many happy returns of a centennialday. President Demarest: Education at Rutgers Collegehas had an especial touch with education in Japan. Inthe seventies the earliest students coming from Japanto America for the Western learning came to New Bruns-wick, to Eutgers College and to its Preparatory of Rutgers went to Japan to do pioneer workin education there. David Murray went from his pro-fessorship in this College to be the pioneer in organizingthe modern educational system of that country. We have with us a delegate from that far distant land;I have greatest satisfaction in introducing Baron Chuza-buro Shiba of the Imperial University of Tokyo, Japan. ADDR
