Last night Georgetown University inaugurated the Celebration of Founders Day amid the pomp and splendor which is characteristic of social affairs as at present conducted at the University. The decorations of the Diplomatic Corps, the presence of the Faculty and the Senior Class in their caps and gowns, and. the officers of the R. O. T. C. added color to the gathering. Founders Day is the beginning of a series of annual celebrations in honor of those intrepid priests and educationalists, who, under the leadership of Rev. John Carroll, founded the College in the year 1789. The President of the Yard, William D. Mooney, ’30, addressed the assembly in Gaston Hall and extended greetings in the name of the Faculty and the student body. After this salutation was delivered, Mr. George McNeir, LL.D., of the Board of Regents, read the charter of the University. In an address subsequent to that of Mr. McNeir’s, the President of the University, W. Coleman Nevils, S.J., read the proclamation of Founders Day. Then the Rt. Rev. John M. Mc¬ Namara , D.D., read the names of Andrew White, John Altham-Gravenor, Thomas Gervase, Thomas Copley, Ferdinand Poulton and John Carroll, who were the founders of the University. As each name was read the Archivist of Georgetown University tolled the bell of the First Church of Maryland, in memory of the founders. The bell has been in the possession of the University PAUL CLAUDEL, for many years and it was brought forth from the Archives for this event. After the ringing of the bell the choir sang the Praises of the Founders, which is an Ambassador from France, and recipient ARTURO TOSCANINI, adaptation from Ecclesiastus. of honors in the James Ryder Randall Conductor of the New York Philhar¬ Academy of Letters.

IN MEMORIAM. FROM A RINGSIDE SEAT. It seems to be a custom, and a very deplorable custom, of mankind to forget the German students have their sword duelling, Spanish students their bull fights, deeds and accomplishments of the dead.

Any member of the every country, the greatest men of bygone ages are remembered as much as the dust throng of spectators which witnessed the boxing bouts between Collier and First New to which they sink.
