The commencement exercises will take place In the As-tor Gallery at the Waldorf-Astoria, when class of nine will receive diplomas. One- of Waller-stein's chief -object In taking the medical course was to fit for the work of establishing a free private clinic for poor women and children. Mrs. Wallerste'n has not yet decided on the location of the clinic, but it will doubdess be one of the east side tenement, districts. Later as the work grows a downtown branch will be established.

Mrs. who Is well-to-do. has devoted atl her leisure outside of her studies, to charitable work. In establishing the new clinic It is not unlikely that many of Dr. Osier's recent suggestions will be' utilised.

Mrs. Wallerstein tr Iked enthusiastically of lier work yes terday. I have not all my plans completed yet," shv said, "as I have been so busy with my school work, but I shall give It my immediate attention after next Tues day, and hope to get It In shape for opening at an date. My work among the poor suggested the' proposed clinic To me and the very great need for Such an Institution. The clinic, will be open night and day, and trained nurses will be In at tendance.

There are many unfortunate women and children who are too poor to engage the services of a physician and whose pride rebels at appearing before a student body. Th institution will be a boon to this class." The downtown clinic, which may te established later by Mrs. Wallerstein; will be opened with a view to taking care of emergency cases, such as slight accidents.

Z. Ripley presided. The Judges were Prof. J. W.

Jenks of Cornell. Judge A. L. Brown of the fnlted States District Court, and Judge Edgar Aldrtch of the United States District Court or Appeals. The Harvard men contended that.

although the Inter-State Commerce Commission could condemn excessive rates.
