With a total of 294 subscriptions obtained, the average pledge amounts to almost four hundred dollars. This showing is all the more remarkable in view of the comparative youthfulness of the Rose alumni. With its first graduating class dating from 1885, Rose has few gray-haired graduates. Most Polytechnic men have just begun the .climb up the ladder of success. Taking this Into consideration,. It is believed that the Rose alumni have established a record which will stand for years to come—and this without regard to such material additions as may be made to the fund in the near future.

the $150,000 mark will be passed and left well behind before the alumni movement has been brought to a close. Of course, the average which has been established cannot be maintained throughout the alumni body but material increases will be made, almost, dally, 'to the total thus far reported.

The effect 6n the Terre Haute campaign of this liberality on the part o o s e a u n i w i e a o s i n valuable, it is believed. As one prominent citizen phrased it during the past week: "If these men, most of them Just making their start in life, and nearly all of them femoved from Terra Haute, can rally in this way to the support of Rose then what must be expected of the people of our city, who are in constant and .increasingly beneficial relationship to the college which Chauncey Rose founded a generation1 ago?"

It was a long, weary wait the American reception committee had for the Britishers. The details of the reception were unknown to most members of the party, and as to time and place must remain so to the public.

Suffice that Gen. Wood, Admiral Fletcher, Commander Sellers and other army and navy officers in their gold •braided uniforms created a furore in the rural districts they have from time to time been forced to inhabit in Ihe last day or so.

In the reception line at the very simple ceremony which marked the arrival of the Balfour party also were the British military attache, Col. O'Brien, and Naval Attache Capt. Gaunt, of the British embassy.
