...interest soon fags after they receive the honor of an election. As the only society at Harvard devoted exclusively to debate and practice in parliamentary procedure the Union has become one of the permanent fixtures of the university. It has ever been recognized by the faculty as a valuable adjunct to the regular college work, and many a student feels that the part he has taken in its meetings has been of more practical value than any course in the college curriculum.

To the best of our knowledge we may state that no college daily at Harvard has as yet succeeded in clearing expenses at the end of any year's publication. From this fact we leave the college to draw its own inferences as to the kind and degree of support which it has given...
