The coddled infant, which, with fear and trembling, the board of editors of la.st year sent out as the first Tulane Jambalaya, has, with the nourish- ment afforded by our great Universit} ' , grown into the lusty, self-reliant young hopeful which we this da}- unloose from our apron-strings. As the child ' s god-parents, to whose tender care both its mental and moral training have been entrusted, we do feel some pride, and we hope justifiable pride, in the result of our conscientious efforts in its behalf. But it were both unfair and ungrateful, should we fail to acknowledge how uauch our labors have been lightened and how much our difficulties have been smoothed by the ones to whom it owes the breath of life, and from whom it inherited not only its jovial and kindl)- disposition, but whatever it may possess of talent and of parts.

monuments to his memory. As long as the river flows, as long as education remains the torch of the world, so long will his far-sightedness shine and his name be revered by generation after generation. When Paul Tulane, then a resident of New Jersey, conceived the idea of endowing an institution of learning in the State wherein he had laid the founda- tion of his fortune, his eye fell upon Gibson as a man not only prominent in public affairs, but as one so deeplj ' interested in the welfare of that State as to be eminently fitted for the trust which he had to bestow. To Gibson, then, although up to that time personalh- unknown to him, Tulane disclosed his project and entrusted the upbuilding of the University whose benign influence and deserved fame are even now spreading throughout the country. During the remainder of his life, to promote the prosperity of that institution was his con- stant aim ; its advancement and development into a true and perfect University which would cast the characters of its scholars in the loftiest moulds of man- hood, was the subject of his incessant solicitude. He was trusted by his State for his purity of motive, endeared to the South by his service in her army, honored by the Nation for his service in its Senate, respected by humanity for his work for education ; his life will forever remain a young man ' s example and incentive to become that of which this country is so much in need, a true American statesman.
