...distances we are discussing appear vastly more important when it is remembered that very shortly we shall depend for transit on an elevated railway, which will have one station at Harvard or Brattle square, another at Putnam square, and none between. This will affect students as they come and go from Boston. A club requiring a third of a mile walk will not be a natural stopping place for students coming from town, nor will it be convenient to graduates who have attended a game at Soldiers Field; these will think twice before they walk the required distance...

In Oxford a "scholar" gets his scholarship by examination before he enters the university and then holds it throughout his university career. The result is not only to make the scholarships more desirable, but to affect the schools which, in England, instead of "preparing men to satisfy the 'entrance requirements'", fit them to try for scholarships.

Homesickness, which the medical authorities have dignified as a distinct disease under the title of nostalgia, must affect hundreds of the soldiers in its most acute form. If the people at home will send the boys something to remind them that they are not forgotten, something to impress them with the hearty sympathy of the American people for the men who are fighting their battles, they will...
