Accordingly, the suggestion from Paris seems especially pertinent. To supplant the dead trees with mature full-grown trees is, briefly, the plan. The necessity of enduring a collection of ambitious but ineffective saplings while they try with dubious success to grow into trees is thus obviated. The period, necessarily of considerable length, between the time when the old trees begin to die and the time when other trees of healthy maturity appear to replace them is reduced to a minimum as is the risk of failure...
...ordinary circumstances the plan of requiring the attendance of Freshmen at chapel once a week during the first two or three months of their course would be worth trying. It would hamper their freedom little, and might open the eyes of many. But the world that knows Harvard has grown very nervous in the last few years at the tendency toward paternalism; and there is nothing on earth which would call forth such protest as a manifestation of religious paternalism.

The real reason for the volume appearing less thick than last year is due to a much thinner quality of paper being used, although leaving out the College Directory did, of course...
...proportion of the Senior Class rooming in the Yard has grown steadily larger since the plan was first begun. The present Junior Class has from now till January 20 to determine what percent of the class of 1915 will be there next year. There are doubtless many hesitating as to their decision in the matter; the best thing for such men to do is to talk to members of the present Senior Class who are now rooming in the Yard. If they follow the advice of the great majority of these they will be found next year thankfully filling...
