...news with absolute truthfulness and accuracy, would undoubtedly do an immense amount of good and would greatly increase the influence of the University. But in considering a project of this sort, the question of practicability is exceedingly important.

The great success of the Harvard Club of Boston is an example of this, and as the various functions of this organization are brought to our notice we cannot understand why its origin is of such recent date.
