...this determination to be fulfilled and this generosity to be repaid an equal determination and an equal willingness to give--of their time and work and intelligence--must come from the undergraduates and from other members of the Harvard Regiment. It is this for which I appeal. Enrolment must be speedy and complete. Every man must do his bit and his best to keep the Regi- ment "in the pink of condition" and at the height of efficiency.

Every college graduating class for the last century or so has heard the appeal to take a live interest in public affairs and to get into the midst of political activities.

...regards giving "years to the collection of the fund," the time to be devoted to the gathering of the $10,000,000 will be determined largely by the measure in which graduates and friends respond to the appeal.

...other plays is "The Reunion," by Eleanor Hinkley. This play has an unusual appeal to those interested in the aspirations of youth; yet it concerns old age. While in no sense a play of a social problem, it suggests some very practical improvements which might take place in our charitable institutions.
