This has always been valuable but during the last three years its scope has been much enlarged by the formation of special reference libraries in the various recitation buildings. The work in the German, French, Greek, Natural History, Political Economy and History departments has been greatly facilitated by the new plan.

At times during the second half Harvard played a lifeless game and lost much ground by poor work. Several times the rush line was broken through almost without resistance or eared back bodily.

Now, however, preparations are making for the excavation of Delphi and its surroundings under the direction of American scholars and these excavations, if successful, will go far toward proving America's claim to scholarly recognition. No more fruitful field certainly could have been chosen for the initial work than the site of ancient Delphi so replete with the historic associations of all Greece, and the results there attained cannot fail to be a great addition to classical learning. It is a just matter of pride to us as Harvard men, also, that the project now started is largely...
