With the exception of Dr. Burton, | who was unable to attend because of ; ill health, presidents emeritus of the/ university since its inception in 1869 were programmed for. thé: occasion. Dr. Folwell, the veteran: president emeritus, took office upon establish-: ment of the institution and continued | as head until 1884, when Dr. Northrop assumed the presidency. | In 1911, Dr. ‘Northrop relinquished | the office in favor of Dr. George Vin-' cent, now president of the Rockefe!-: ler Foundation, New York, who left, the institution in 1917 to associate! himself with the foundation. Dr. Bur-| ton then succeeded to the presidency; and he continued in office until July 1, 1920, when he became president of the University of Michigan. eh After the speeches of Presidents- | emeritus Folwell and Northr Dr. Coffman delivered his inaugural ad- dress, taking as his aubject the his- tory of public education in America, The evolution of our school systeni | from the fundamental tenets of popu- lar education to the advanced superior | types of learning was narrated by Dr. Coffman.

The efforts made in the state are described by Dr. W. F. Crew, secretary of ‘the State Live- stock Sanitary Board. (By Dr. W. F. Crewe, Secretary Live- stock Sanitary Board.) Both the Federal and State Livestock Sanitary Departments are carrying on suppression of bovine tuberculosis.

Congress w finally induced to make an appropriation of $500,000 to be expended in co-operation with tates as would enter into an ag! ment to co-operate on practically an jequal basis, appropriations to be ex- peded for service in tuberculin test- jing cattle and providing f to partly compensate ow! mals slaughtered for this disease. As the diseased animals are the original source of the infection, it can only be controlled by slaughter of the infected animals or rigid segregation of very valuable animals that may be retained for a certain period for breeding purposes. Stock owners have become aroused to the necessity for action towards the eradication of the disease and co-oper- ate in an excellent manneg. At this time, every state in the Union has entered into this work with appropriations that vary more or. less. Last year Congress appropriated $1,- 500,000 for this work and have a large deficiency at this time. Two milliot dollars has been appropriated for the coming -year, State Progressive.
