Editors Daily Crimson:

I think you will be interested to note the meeting of the Harvard club of Minnesota last evening. It was the first of a series of quarterly meetings, designed, as you will see from the enclosed invitation, to secure a more united feeling among our Harvard alumni and a more constant reminder of affairs of interest at the university.

The expectation has been amply justified by the event. For although but twenty men were present out of a membership of forty-nine in Minnesota, the meeting was the most cheerful, the most coraial, the most wide-awake, in the history of the club. The various copies of the CRIMSON, the Monthly, and the Advocate, so generously contributed to the club, were seized upon with avidity; extracts were read from the president's last report, and the various matters of moment in the policy and opportunities of the university were the subjects of lively discussion. I doubt if the opinions expressed will exert a very grave influence upon the overseers, the academic council or the faculty; but it is at any rate a good thing that alumni should have opinions, should wish to express them, and should have a chance to express them.

Hitherto our annual dinners have been the only times of assembly; constructed-as we librarians would say-on the "fixed location" system, they have lacked the movement necessary to diffused cheerfulness: instead, centres of volcanic mirth with large areas of depression.

Our next attempt is to be in August-an afternoon and evening at Lake Minnetonca-a favorite summer resort for these two cities. We expect much from the new extension also.

Sincerely yours, HERBERT PUTNAM, Secretary H. C. of M.
