I Miss EMen Fitz Pendleton of West- erlv has been appointed to the presi- dency of Wellesley college, being the sirst graduate of that institution to hold that position of konmor and re- sponeibility. She is daughter of the late Enoch Burrows and Mary Etta Chepman-Pendleton, and was born in Westerly, August 7, 1864, and received ner degree of bachelor of arts from Wellesley in 1884, She is sister of Cherles H.

Dr. Samuel B. Capen of Boston, pres- ident of the board of trustees, made the anneuncement of Miss Pendleton's melection Saturday. In anticipation of | this event, all of the faculty members wore their caps and gowns at the chap- el service. In her position of acting | president, Mies Pendleton appeared to conduct the service an dafter giving out the opening hymn she relinquished her place to Dr. Cupen. After remding the Scripturs lesson and offering prayer, Dr. Capen spoke to the congregation, saving that the | beard haed wiven long and careful co sideration to the matter of selecting president for the coliege. There ha beem some discussion, he said, amon poard members as to whether a man | or @ weman should be invited to the office, but it had fimally been decided that the tradidons of the instituticn required thai & woman should be chos en. it was alse felt to be advisable, D: Capen said, to select a Wellesley grad- vate for the pesition. He mentioned Miss Pendlctow's long term of service with the college, telling how she had been connected with the instilution ever since her graduatien twenty-flve years ago. Iuring the tem vears she had served as dean and the eight month months during which she had been the acting presfdent, Dr. Capen sa¥l she had well shown her Mness for the pesition. Becas of this fitness and her high Christian character the trustees voted uuamimously Friday, he said, to appe'mt her president of the coBlage At this point in the exercises all of the students end facwity members rose io their feet and applausded long and vigore: end Mys.

The business session of Saturd was held in the chapel at Watch Hill, with over a hundred delegates in at- tendance, representing Episcopal nurches from all sections of New Ingland. Aftef a short praise serv- ice, followed with an opening prayer, v, William F. Williams, rector of Christ Episcopal church, Westerly, de- livered an address an The Game of Life. In opening ne velcomed the de egates and expressed resret that Bis op Perry was vnable to be present at that s n. In speaking of the Game of Life, Mr. Williams told his audit- ors that “play” as the word is com- wnly un 0od was nothing more or less than “work” with joy added to it. Whenever work of any kind undertaken oi one’'s own free will jov was derived from the effort, He spoke further of games as being imitative of warfare, but said that in the play- ing of games, whether or not of the more strenuous king that requir strength as well as skill, it wag m ly a training for preparation of li work. In cenclusion Rev. Mr. Will- iams said that the one lovely thought about The Game of Life was “that your censtantly doing for the Master is perhaps labor, but joy, added to it, makes it a pleasure that results in the noblest sort of play that would be entirely spoiled had_the joy been left out.” Rev. John S. Littell of Keane, N. H., then addressed the members, s X ing on The Work Among Ot born Population, The addres much interest and unique, inasmuch as Mr. Litfell has had 2n opportuni work in flelds, although in his city, which are out of the general line that most ehapters of the brotherhood come in contact witl The work among the Greeks, Swedes and Enmglish, for the most part among the laboring clase, had been most s cessful and the fruits of been pronounced.

The Norwich Bulletin Monday morn- ing had a very fair editorial on the comment of the Bridgeport Standard on the New London Day's utterance regarging the wear and tear on the Norwich road. The Bridgeport paper interpreted the New London paper’s remhark as censure. but The Bulletin did not, nor does the Telzgraph. There is no need of giving Highway Co missioner MazcDonald more blame than justly belongs to him. It may be pop- ular to run him down. but justice re- quires the statement that he has made good roads and they are to b2 seen. There is no finer road in the state thay that between Middletown and Hartford and the stretch between Meriden and Hartford bas stood the test of heavy touring cars and vet looks well. In the case of the Norwich road, the high rate of speed and the weight of the cars which are run over it makes the wear simply a hundred-fold -what it would b> under ordinary c-aditions. "The Builetin thinke that the automo- biles should be heid responsible as well s the highway commissioner. The Telegraph has spoken before of the wear on the road Th2 remarks ap- ply to all Connecticut roads, and by the time the next legislature convenes it will have to plan some way to make car owne! contribute mere to road- making.—. ondon Telegraph.
