The mission work suggested by the letter from Father Field adds one more to the list of charitable organizations in which Harvard men are interested. As the list grows it becomes more and more significant. The time has gone by when college men turned up their noses at the needs of others less fortunate than themselves, and considered contact with a different class or a different race as beneath their dignity. The fact is that education, intellectual and moral, is showing more and more clearly that, in the present order of things, the voice of the lower class must be heard, and must be heard by college men. More and more men of recognized standing here in the University are becoming interested, either actively or passively, in the Prospect Union and the various mission fields covered by Harvard religious societies. The particular work in question demands, so far as we can make out, rather the influence of gentlemanly manners than any active intellectual work. Father Field asks for the presence of two gentlemen each evening. Men who have never seen such work will find it interesting and instructive, even if it reminds them of their own selfishness and want of human sympathy. As a means near at hand of doing a kindly act, this new mission should find its place among students.
