The new officers of the CRIMSON indicate the inauguration of no new policy. It has been the purpose of the paper in the past to assist, so far as it was capable, in the healthy development of the University, and it will remain its purpose in the future.

The CRIMSON seeks, by its carefulness in handling matter, to merit the confidence of the University officials and the members of the faculty; and, by fairness and equality of treatment, to merit the trust of the students. Its chief end is to make itself a medium between all members of the University, facilitating their work by its announcements, giving expression to their personal opinions by its communications, stimulating interest in their activities by its reports, and reflecting their calm and abiding opinions by its editorials. We are here not only to afford a running comment on university events, but we are ready and eager to give aid to all movements which promise increase for Harvard's welfare. We purpose to be, not so much the critic, as the servant of the University.

The work of the CRIMSON is done under limitations. The editors have many other demands on their time and energy, and the resources of the paper are by no means professional. Limitations mean imperfections, and, in consequence, the ideal CRIMSON and the actual CRIMSON are necessarily apart. Steadily, however, the gap between the two has been diminished by the work of previous boards, and the retiring ninety-four board in particular, have done great service to the paper by the number of solid improvements which they have made. It will be the endeavor of the incoming board to continue their work and constantly to make the paper better fitted to fulfil its function.
