The Student Volunteer Committee have now commenced active work. It is plain that to have success, such a movement must have organization; and that to have organization it must have money. Mr. Birtwell is a man who commands a large salary in his present work, and he has consented to undertake the direction of the work here for a comparatively small sum. Eight hundred dollars could not be better spent.
Students will, we feel sure, subscribe for this sum willingly. Men who are too busy to give time can give money. The plan of work is a good one, - remarkable not only because it has never before been tried here, but also because it is sure to be taken as a copy by other large colleges throughout the country. Every Harvard man will wish to share in making it a success.
