The generous old Sir Thomas Hollis, the martial "Washington Corps," the great nineteenth century figures--Thoreau and Summer and Emerson and the rest--these men belong to Harvard tradition not less than to Hollis lore.

Assuming that the greatest care will be taken to choose men who will be taken to choose men who will be conscientious in their responsibility we come to the question of what advice they should give. Of course, the usual procedure of making the Freshman feel at home and explaining some of the ins and outs of College should be carried through, but there is one matter of vital and increasing importance on which more stress ought to be laid.
