The object of the lecture is one which certainly must appeal to us all. We all must realize that the Boat Club needs help, and when we can give aid at the cost of such small sacrifice to ourselves it is plainly our duty-and should be our pleasure-to do so. The time, place and means of securing tickets for the lecture will be found in the notice. We would advise those...
