...American Association for the advancement of science. In 1884 his portrait, made in bronze, was presented to Harvard College. No tablet of bronze will be necessary to perpetuate the scientific fame of Asa Gray. It is well, however, that generations of scholars yet unborn may thus be able to gaze upon the gentle features of a man whom no one has yet surpassed in the lustre which he has shed upon their Alma Mater...

For once, the Conference Committee was not obliged to exert its energies in extinguishing bon fires in the yard, but could gaze with satisfaction at the glare of the huge fire on Jarvis. This is the third celebration which '89 has provided this spring, and now that she seems to understand the business thoroughly, there is still another chance in a few weeks at New London.
