Memorial Presented to France

The presentation of a memorial, signed by five hundred representative Americans, to the president of the French Republic, was made by Dr. Morton Prince '75, of Boston. The ceremony took place in the Elysee when Dr. Prince, as special envoy of the 500 American signers, emphasized in his presentation speech the desire of the Americans doing active work in France to express collectively their sympathy for the French nation. The memorial, which bore the title "America to France" in gold letters, contained the autograph signatures of the American sitizens represented and a message of sympathy to the people of the Allied nations. The volume will shortly be placed in the National Museum.
