Taussig in opening the proceedings said in part: We are assembled here to-day only -to commemorate the founding of this school by J.C. Wilmerding, but also 1o mark the event by the laying of the cornerstone of the new buildings. The. entire work on the buildings will be done by the students and it will be a work of learning 1 as a work of love, In the years to grown to be it this spot and point with pride k. I hope that every student at pride in the work of this its object will reflect to a de- on trades and the community. The real of this school has not vet heen fully ognized, but the compunity is taking a greater iMerest in it than ever. The appli- cations for entrance into the school are in- creasinz and it is a serious question to find the funds now, required to fully accommodate the students. 1 regret that Governor Pardee is unable to be with us to-day, as he hoped to be. He is a great friend of this school and ls always ready to help it. I have great pleasure in in- troducing to you Professor kiwood E.. Brown of the University of California. NOTED EDUCATOR SPEAKS. Professor Brown was given a warm reception when he arose to address the assembly. - He stated that the schools of industrial arts represented a new current in the system of education. He described the modes of education ir vogue .in the past centuries and how they had changed until the appren- ticeship system was reached. He de- scribed the work of training young men n for trades and industrial occupations, | and said that no education was: com- plete without some training for some stable occupation in life. Continuing he said: We now have a demand fer men,” who, to succeed, must have a general and a specific traming in their craft. This chool represents a valuable department in the prepargtion and education for vccupation. This school training involves the application of general principles to the immediate work in hand. This work aevelops the spirit and a man sees his work as a part of the great work of the world. It cultivates the artistic spirit and a man takes interest in his work and product and is not simply interested in his pay. The spirit of the artist is Injected into the artisan. The training school helps to im-+ prove the trades that the student ‘will later on follow for an occupation. Men will not be siaves to trade, mor mere hangers on. They will make their trade more worthy of respect. They will help the trade by bullding up the manhood of the men em- ployed. Their work in life will be a continu- Men will do their work in a thoughtful manner and will make such changes as will benefit their work and product. It will help to curb the tendency of trades unions to limit the output of all men employed in certain work. No man with the spirit of an artist wiil sub- mit to such a proposition. This school and the Lick School are tlie schools of the country that glve to young men a falr training for their future occupations. PRESIDENT WHEELER GREETED. President Benjamin Ide Wheeler of various | | th the State University was then duced by the chairman and he was loudly cheered by the guests and the students present. President Wheeler | delivered an interesting address and in )’ml( said: "o some people it may seem a far cry from Wilmerding School in the Potrero to the | University at Berkeley, but to me it is I am here to the State University In ord: may set forth the unity in educat intro- no difference er between 1 1 t of the university.

The University of California_welcomes this school to her heart. It belleves in it and in its purposes, for it embodles within it the spirit of the university. | LAY THE CORNERSTON The gathering of guests, students and regents then proceeded to the open air, where the ving of the corner stone of the new school was to be done. The students of the bricklaying class had prepared the block of granite, which swung from.a tackle held up by a derrick. The lads worked with a will and in a few minutes had everything ready. Fresident Wheeler was handed a cop- | per box containing reports of the Wil merding School, the State University, circulars of the school, copies of the daily papers, a copy of the school seal, | coins and postage stamps and a list of the students now enrolled. The copper box was handed by Presi- | dent Wheeler to Student. J. McAdoo | and the little fellow soldered it up in | workmanlike manner. President Wheeler then deposited the sealed box in the cavity of the corner stone. The student bricklayers, clad in white clothes, lowered the block of granite into place and it was “capped” by a smaller stone. President Wheeler and the other re- gents spread mortar around the joints o the two blocks of granite amld the cheprs, of the students and their friends, and Regent' Taussig then an- nounced that the ceremony was com- plete. LADS TO ERECT BUILDING. The new building of the Wilmerding School will be 170 by 160 feet in size and will be four stories in height. The structure will consist of brick, red sandstone and terra cotta and the en- tire work will be done by the students of the school.
