...their accommodation in the Fogg Museum would necessitate the sacrifice of too much of the very limited space at disposal in that building. The strength of the first argument might well be doubted, as indeed might that of the second in view of Harvard's small possessions in the shape of works of art. But there is sufficient truth in the assertion of lack of space to force on our attention once more the deplorable failure of the Fogg Museum to serve the ends for which its donor intended it.

Very encouraging reports come from the different cities...
...last and most important reason against the action of the directors is that it casts a slur upon the whole Harvard Dining Association. The matter will be made public in the shape that the gallery at Memorial Hall was closed because the students acted ungentlemanly towards visitors. Such an accusation against the whole association would be false, but its falsity would not remove the slur that rests upon the well-behaved members of the association...
