Not long ago it was suggested in our columns that it would be a wise and beneficial thing to organize a dramatic club here at Harvard, in view of the success which has attended such organizations at Princeton, Yale and Columbia. Although no step has been as yet taken in this direction, we are convinced that the students only want to have the matter urged upon them, so we venture to repeat our exhortation of several weeks since. The good that such an association would do is obvious. In the first place it would lead to a better, more thorough knowledge of some of the famous old playwrights than the average Harvard student now has; and, as we stated before, it would promote the study of elocution, the art of good delivery, of proper gesticulation to a higher and broader level than they hold to-day in the University. Then the association would materially aid the athletic organizations in a financial way. To quote from our columns of yesterday:

"At the theatricals recently given at Columbia, five hundred dollars were cleared for the benefit of the university crew."

This speaks for itself. In conclusion we would say that we hope to see a dramatic club flourishing at Harvard before long, and we invite communications on the subject from those of our readers who may be interested in the idea.
