...month of extra grinding for the Finals as it was in my days. But there are a number of men who are able to get away - at any rate, a few athletic men could doubtless obtain permission for a five weeks' absence, especially as the Easter vacation (which I hope has not meanwhile been abolished by the Overseers) will cover two of these weeks. Harvard must by all means be honorably represented, as the oldest and greatest of American universities; and her athletic circles must begin to consider the matter from now.

This does not mean that individual subscriptions, even in considerable quantities, are wanting, but that a large majority of the students display an unfortunate indifference to, or ignorance of, the financial needs of the Union. The Union can not hope to receive enough from its insignificant tuition fees to cover even current expenses; at present it is still further hampered by the fact that the payment for its new quarters in the old City Hall is not made up by the subscriptions collected to that end. The Union does...
