A Professor Writes the President’s Speech

President Butler of Columbia University was to deliver a Latin address before the savants of Berlin. When on his way to Berlin, Dr. Butler acknowledged, according to a newspaper report, that Professor Peck of the Latin department of Columbia had written the speech. It is very amusing for a professor to write a university president's speech—it reminds one of his grammar school days.
