The notice calling the attention of the members of the Shakspere Club to their first meeting of this year should be heeded. The club has made an enviable record. All the students, and indeed the general public, remember with satisfaction the evening readings by Mr. Jones, the lectures by Mr. Dougherty and Mr. Irving, and the great play of last year. The club has lost many valuable men in '85, - men whose places it will be hard to fill. The energetic president, however, is still here, and will do much to place the club again in a working condition. Having once seen what an organization of this nature can do, the Harvard student demands that there shall be no diminution of interest and work, and that if possible the past record may be sustained and even surpassed.
