Auditor IVE the Conservatory an enthusiastic student body, and loyalty to the Alma Mater will ever be the keynote struck by the Alumni. Nothing so happily forecasts a forceful alumni body as such a visi- ble proof of the esprit de corp: of a Senior class which strives to leave its impress upon its Alma Mater. So it is with the real appreciation of the worth of the young students who send forth THE NEUME that the Alumni Association congratulates the Class of 1905.' I have been requested to write briefly of the Alumni Association. May I be permitted to speak historically and hopefully. Not all can be said in the space at our disposal, yet it is our desire that the best in the Association shall find imprint here. The Alumni Association of the New England Conservatory of Music was organized in 1880. Its avowed objects are to perpetuate and intensify in its members their fidelity to their Alma Mater and to bind them together in a spirit of true friendship and mutual helpfulnessg to assist worthy students by the establishment of a loan fund, free scholarships, and prizes, and by aiding inthe endowment of professor- ships when these helps shall become practicable, and in general, to aid the Conservatory, assist each other, and further the true progress of art. At the time of this Alumni organization the Conservatory was located at the old Music Hall in Hamilton Place, and had an attendance of some eight hundred pupils.
