By its vote to hold a class dinner this year, the Class of Ninety-nine has taken the initiative in a movement which it is hoped and believed will be the means of strengthening class spirit and enthusiasm, of which there is now far too little at Harvard. A Sophomore dinner should, like the Junior dinner now annually held, do much to make the members of the class better acquainted with each other as individuals, and with the strength and spirit and ability in various ways of the class as a whole. To be thoroughly successful the dinner should be informal as all the undergraduate class dinners have been in the past.

It is much to the credit of Ninety-Nine which has shown unusual strength in athletics, debating and all its class organizations, and the most class spirit and enthusiasm of any class which has been in college for a number of years, that it is endeavoring to introduce a practice which is intended to awaken greater interest among undergraduates in their class organizations and a more demonstrative loyalty to the College.
