Many men who pick up their morning papers and fail to find accounts of terrible accidents, atrocious crimes, financial failures, or scandalous wrong-doing, throw them aside in regret that there is no news.

This telegram, sent to President Lowell on Saturday, is another instance of the fine feeling of community of both interest and purpose which should exist between all college men at all times.
