The supplementing of the interchange of professors by an interchange of students is gratifying. By agreement with the French and Prussian ministers of education, Harvard University will remit tuition of five students of each country during a period of 10 years, and it is hoped that the bond of friendship produced by these provisions will strengthen as the years go on.
