In Address to Baccalaureates University Head Scores Rat- icalism and Social Revolt. The intvrnational character of the student boa’ of Columbia University was strikingl, iNustrated to-day when the 167th Comnencement Day exer- cises assembled \ ore than 2,000 grad- wates in the gym asium to receive Among the young men who concluded their were representatives of many bloods and many races from all corners of the earth.

The degree of Doctor of Science was conferred upon Mme. Marie Sklo- a Curie, discoverer of radium; Campbell Merriam, — lately chosen Institute, and Samuel Waldron Lam- to be President of Carnegie bert, for fifteen s dean of the Medical Faculty of Columbia, Upon Gov. Nathan Lewis Miller, Judge Julius Marshall Mayer of the United States District Court, who was grad- uated from Columbia Law Schoo! in 1886, and James Rowland Angell, who is about to assume the office of President of Yale University, were conferred the degree of Doctor of Laws. Robert Grant, the author and President of the National Insti- tute of Arts and Letters, was made un honorary Doctor of Letters. The univemity grounds were too small to accommodate the throng that swarmed about the library and gymnasium long before 10 o'clock. At 10.30 o'clock the trustees, facul- ties and graduating classes marched in parade from the library to the gymnasium, where the formal exer- cises began at 11 o'clock. At 1 o'clock this afternoon the alumni and officers of the university had luncheon in the main gymnasium ‘and the alumnae and officers of Bar- nard College lunched in Student Hall, The rest of the afternoon was crowded with student recreations, in- cluding a costume parade on South Field and a baseball game between Columbia and Cornell, President Butler delivered two ad- dresses in the course of the proceed- ings. The first was to the graduates in the gymnasium. The complaint from some quarters that radicalism has invaded the universities was in- directly touched upon by President Butler, tn his talk to the students, in the following passage: “It pleases some ardent and hope- Jessly youthful spirits to portray themselves as in revolt against things fs they are; but this is not the con- structive temper or the spirit In which to go about the serious business of making the world better, An appre- ciation of the present and an under- standing of the past are a far better preparation for the improvement of the future than a dissatisfaction with the present and a comtempt for the past can possibly be. Faith in the future includes faith in that upon which the future rests and out of which it must grow.” Prot. James F. Kemp delivered the address introductory to conferring the honorary degrees. The graduating classes were presented by the deans or directors of the various schools and colleges in the university, For the frst time in its history Columbia con- ferred upon women the degree of Doc- tor of Medicine. There were six women in the class from the School of Medi- cine—two of them married. In his address to the alumni, trus- tees and faculty this afternoon, Presi- dent Butler said, in part: “Four distinct periods of Colum- pia’e history He behind us. We are entering upon a new and fifth period, which is to be a period of strengthen- ing our resources, of completing our fabric, of mtegrating our efforts and activities to the end that our watch- word, ‘Scholarship and Service,’ may be every day more completely justi- fied, ‘The university is now built and fhe next generation is to justify the hope and ambitions of the builders.” Dr. Butler spoke at length upon the achievement of the ambition of the trustees of the university to add to an accomplished fact.
