EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON.-I was surprised to learn by a short article in the HERALD-CRIMSON recently, how many graduates of Harvard on Massachusetts newspapers were also graduates of the college papers. I knew, indeed, every one of the men mentioned, and their present positions, but like those who live nearest any odd or fine work of nature and for that very reason never realize the wonder of the scene as perfectly as do visitors from a distance, I possessed no definite realization of the part which the college papers have done in fitting men for journalistic work...

The old method of conducting half courses, by which two lours of recitations per week were held throughout the entire year, was certainly a failure when viewed in this light.
