The college regards with pleasure the departure which its worthy president has made in delivering addresses before the students. Twice last spring he spoke on subjects vitally connected with college life. His talk on a choice of elective studies in college will ever be remembered by those who heard it. It was a talk pregnant with sound common sense and was of inestimable value to everyone in selecting such courses as would be of the greatest value to him in after life. President Eliot is a man of ideas. Whatever he may have to say upon a subject will be well worth listening to, and every man should regard it as a great privilege to attend his lecture this evening. The lecture is intended for new members of the University and will be of especial interest to them. It is to be hoped that some time this year President Eliot will deliver a lecture in Sanders Theatre before the whole college.
