...extremely glad that the plans for a Harvard infirmary are taking some definite shape. The need of one that shall be adequate is pressing. Aside from the advantage which the college would derive from it, the benefit to the individual student would be very great.

News might all be delegated to a monthly publication which should merely review all notable contributions to the intellectual life of the college. The more significant intellectual work is done by the individual; it can not be organized; but the news for a college daily must be drawn from the organized activities of the college.
