...most acute form. If the people at home will send the boys something to remind them that they are not forgotten, something to impress them with the hearty sympathy of the American people for the men who are fighting their battles, they will do an act of duty as well as charity. In the days of the civil war the arrivals of boxes from home were the most joyful events of the southern camps, and the boys in the Philippines should be remembered all the more because they are so far away...

...Wheeler '96, president of the Graduate Club, was the last speaker. Ten years ago, he said, the men from outside colleges who were studying in the Graduate School, formed the "Harvard Intercollegiate Club." Soon afterward, the name was changed to "Graduate Club."
