insure comprehension however com-
plex the subject-matter. He was a
thorough student; but his interest in
details was largely confined to their
bearing on the main processes of
causation. His lectures might perhaps
have been increased in attractiveness
by a more liberal use of narrative;
but, as illuminating outlines of the
history of the period under consider-
ation, they could hardly have been im-
proved.
Many tributes in this vein have been
given by those who sat under his in-
struction, and when we remember the
thousands of young and receptive minds
who enjoyed this privilege throughout'
his long service here, we are impressed
with the immense importance of his ex-
alted calling. The gospel ministry{
which had engrossed his earlier years
with its raptures and moral crusades,
gradually gave way in his affections
to the ministry of learning, where in
the academic quiet of the study and
the class-room his mind and spirit
breathed a more congenial air. The
change meant no lowering of stan-
dards. To the last he continued to
show, in a rare degree, the virtues
which Christianity is wont to claim
as peculiarly its own.
One of the finest and rarest traits
of his character-often remarked by
those who knew him best--.was his
unwillingness to cherish resentments.
He was sometimes misunderstood,
sometimes upbraided; but he kept his
temper, and he refused to count any
man his enemy. Open and fair-minded,
in controversy, he always declined to
take an unfair advantage of his adver-
sary. He had absolute confidence in
moral forces and bided his time. This
trait won for him general respect and
confidence.
He was temperamentally cautious,1
though not timid. One of his most in-
timate friends once said of him very
justly,-"Open-minded conservatism is
probably his most strongly marked in-
tellectual characteristic." This espec-
ially fitted him to'deal wisely with the
many difficult historical problems that
came in his way as 'a teacher, problems
that have taxed the most penetrating
and subtle minds. This trait also
especially fitted him for carrying large
administrative responsibilities.
On the occasion of his retirement in
1911, his colleagues of the department
of history entertained him, together
with a few of his old friends, at dinner.
In a very characteristic response to
the tributes paid him by those present,
taking for his theme, "The Autumn of
Life," he spoke feelingly and most
touchingly of his ideals for the de-
clining years that awaited him. There
was a tone of serenity, and courage,
and good cheer about it all which
those who heard him can never forget.
But alas for us! the autumn of his
life has descended all to swiftly to
its close. The full and silent tide
moves seaward and bears him afar.

boundless deep
Turns again home."

BOARD WARNS BICYCLE RIDERS
ABOUT USE OF CAMPUS WALKS
In attempting to minimize the chance
for accidents on campus walks, the
board of regents has just posted a
warning to bicycle riders at various
places about the campus. The univer-
sity has always tolerated the riding of
wheels on the grounds, although it has
been forbidden by the city of Ann
Arbor, but now the board wishes to
warn riders in regard to the use of
the walks. The warning includes a
few rules to be kept in mind and ends
with the admonition that in case of
accident the pedestrian will be held
to be in the right.

UNION OPERA VACATION TRIP
Developments at the last meeting of
the university senate indicate that it
s now almost a certainty that the com-
bined musical clubs will take their an-
nual trip next year during spring va-
cation, thereby displacing the out-of-
town spring vacation trip of the Mich-
gan Union opera. The matter was
taken up in the' regular report of the
committee on student affairs, but was
not definitely acted upon.
