An Unfortunate Remark,
One pleasant day last fall, so the
gtory goes, President Hadley of Yale
was strolling through the beautify’
campus of Dartmouth College with his
wife on his arm. They were admiring
the beautiful bulidings which dot the
campus, several of them haveing been
érected by wealthy alumni. Presently
they came to an especially noble aall
built of stones, and occupying a com |
manding site. Over the main entrance |
was a marble tablet which announced
that the hall had been erected by |
“John C. Blank as a memorial to his
Beloved Wife” |
President Hadley stood and looked |
at the noble pile for a moment. Then |
he heaved a sigh that was aimoat en |
vious. !
“Ah,” he sald, “that is what I should |
like to do for my college.”
And to this day, the boys declare
President Hadley cannot understand
why his wife should have looked se
