PRESIDENT HOPKINS delivered the address, "The College Mind," at the opening of Dartmouth's 162nd year, September 18. Anticipated each year as a distinctive contribution to educational thought the President's address reprinted in this issue of THE MAGAZINE fully measures up to the high standard set by his preceding addresses. The attention of alumni is also called to the editorial comment on the address printed herein.

PROFESSOR H. E. B. SPEIGHT, member of the department of Biography since 1927, is the author of THE MAGAZINE'S first article of a series to constitute "A College Course for Alumni." Professor Speight presents "A Course in the Department of Biography." He is in charge of the undergraduate courses in Biography, having succeeded Prof. A. W. Vernon under whose direction the courses were first started in 1924.

DEAN OF FRESHMEN- and Director of Admissions Charles R Lingley is the friend and admired teacher of hundreds of Dartmouth men. He is acting in these administrative capacities this year in place of E. Gordon Bill who is taking his first leave'of absence from the College.

FUTURE issues of THE MAGAZINE will carryadditional articles on "A College Course for Alumni." These will be written by members of the faculty giving courses which are particularly adaptable to alumni interest.

GRADUS AD PARNASSUM will make its appearance in the next issue. It will be a "Page Without a Purpose"—conducted by an editor of THE MAGAZINE—and will give contributors and editors a space in these columns in which to record interesting and humorous bits of Miscellany.
