...latest opinion as to Yale's weak points brings out another difficulty in the Library equipment, its deplorable lack of funds for anual purchases. In a recent letter Dr. W. L. Phelps adds force to Professor Cook's statement that the Library receives too little attention and in some respects, too little use, and adds the charge of poverty of Library funds.

The plans for last year's Prom. have been re-adopted in nearly every case and practically everything...
Bishop John H. Vincent's latest Chautauqua project is a "Hall of Christ." The hall is to contain a room where the life of Christ can be studied. A library containing only lives of Christ by various authors, and a gallery containing paintings and engravings illustrating scenes in the life of Christ will take up the remaining space in the building...
