...done in Greek lands, at all comparable with this in importance and interest. Like the Attis at Olympia and the Acropolis of Athens, the Delphic temenos was an art museum of a national character. How many of the three thousand statues to be seen there in Pliny's time still lie buried beneath the cottages and narrow streets of Kastin-the little modern village on the temple site-no mortal knows. Thousands of inscriptions, the complete plan of the temple, and the topography of the enclosure, are sure to reward richly the fortunate excavators...

It is, of course, easy to crowd almost unconsciously upon the football field when we are interested in the play, and our so doing merits no very severe criticism-and yet time and time again it is a decided hindrance to the men in their work, considerably hampering them in their freedom of motion.

...opportunities for charity work open to students. Professor Peabody made a short introductory address describing the various attempts of the past few year and outlining the plan proposed now. It has been proved that a college movement to be successful must arise from without. College men have neither the time nor the experience to originate a large plan of work. It is proposed now to work through channels already laid out. The many charity organizations of Boston eagerly welcome any aid from Harvard students.
