NO MORE PARADES

Three years ago today, Harvard was the scene upon which representatives of Boston, of Massachusetts and of the nation joined to render homage to a great American figure. Almost without a break since that day, the country has continued to pay tribute, sometimes voiced and sometimes silent, to the power of that man and of his work.

Today, in Appleton Chapel, Harvard College gives manifest evidence of its share in this timeless celebration of its great president. There will be no more parades. But the spirit behind this afternoon's service will be that which will survive all the flags and academic glories that ever celebrated this man yet alive.
