...seems to have worked admirably. It was a thoroughly practical plan; and its managers have carried it through with a success which is gratifying. The association, as we may term it, has one need which the members of the graduating class are especially fitted to supply. It is the want of pictures, rugs, and other comfortable furniture at the training table rooms. All the men leaving Cambridge are reminded of this need, and are urged to give from their abundant stock of such articles, to the association...

...crews, the great need is for better financial support. Both the varsity and freshmen crews for which appeals have so lately been made in these columns, are sadly in want of funds.

This morning the team which will represent us at the intercollegiate games tomorrow will start for New York. We can assure them that that they have the best wishes of the college. Such assurances, however, can best be supported by an enthusiastic demonstration by the college. We hope that every man will be on hand to give the team a hearty send-off. It is a tremendous encouragement to the men to have the college show...

...regret and welcome. Yet the college appreciates very sensibly the sacrifice which the preachers make in coming to us and the great good they are doing at Harvard. Though, as we have said, the college can hardly show to each preacher how highly it regards his work, we want to take this opportunity of welcoming Dr. Van Dyke to Harvard again. Although his connection with Harvard has not been long, we already feel that he is thoroughly...
