It was mainly through the efforts of Mr. Washburn that the State Legislature in 1912 granted the annual appropriation to the Institute of $50,000 for five years, with a provision that if by that time $350,000 more had been received, the appro¬ priation would be continued for five more years. The receipt of this sum has enabled the trustees to improve and enlarge the Institute buildings and equipment so that its condition was never better than at the present time. Not content with his labors in obtaining this grant, it was due in a large measure to his generosity that the Institute will continue to receive it for the next five years. Up until November, 1915, the Institute had received bequests to the value of $320,000, and to make up the required amount Mr. Washburn donated $50,000, to be known as the “Charles Francis Washburn Fund,” in honor of his father and his son, who bore the same name. These are but a few instances which have shown the character and philanthropy of the man to whom the Class of 1916 has dedicated their year-book. Mr. Wash¬ burn’s deeds are many, but few of them are ever brought to our attention because of his distaste for certain kinds of publicity. He has seen much of the world while we are just starting out, but if, in our years to come, we are enabled to even approach the good he has done, our lives, indeed, will have been well spent. Mr. Washburn, the Class of 1916 wishes you the very best of the good things in life in the many happy years still before you. HON. CHARLES G. WASHBURN At Dedication of Alumni Cates y 1 I y M Ed Er
