...John G. Brooks, who lectured here last Monday at the invitation of the Finance Club, graduated from the Harvard Divinity School in 1875. He was not, however, a graduate of the College. As pastor of a church in Roxbury, he came in contact with the working classes, and devoted himself actively to bettering their condition. After some time he went abroad, and studied ethics and political economy for several years. On his return he accepted a call from a church in Brockton, where he is now settled.

These men may be naturally good and agreeable fellows, who come here without knowing anyone, repel those with whom they come in contact by an unfortunate lack of manners or by a hampering poverty, and then are frozen up into themselves by the snobbery which they encounter, and lose all the sweetness of college life in the solitude of their rooms. Exactly such cases are comparatively rare, I know, because generally there will...
