Harvard Advocate Dinner.

The thirtieth annual dinner of the Harvard Advocate will be held tonight at the Parker House. It promises to be by far the most successful the paper has ever given. Besides the present board of editors, about fifty graduates and the presidents of the other Harvard papers will attend. W. G. Peckham '67 will be toastmaster. Responses to toasts will be made by Professor Charles Eliot Norton, Godfrey Morse '70, Professor Barret Wendell, Professor A. B. Hart, Professor J. H. Beale, Professor G. B. Kittredge, C. H. Grandgent '83, C. R. Clapp '84, G. R. Nutter '85, W. B. Wolffe '95, J. A. Gade '96, and L. Williams '97.

This occasion, the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of the Advocate, will be marked also by the appearance of "Stories from the Harvard Advocate," a handsomely bound volume of 250 pages containing a collection of fifty stories selected from the Advocate files since the founding of the paper in 1866 to the present day.

Two small volumes of verse, each a chronicle of a decade's history of the Advocate, have before been published. This volume, however, appears in prose instead of verse.

Among the old editors who have contributed articles to this volume are C. S. Sage '67, E. W. Fox '67, W. G. Peckham '67, who is to be toast master at the dinner tonight, Edward Hale '79, Theodore Roosevelt '80, Professor A. B. Hart '80, C. H. Grandgent '83, C. R. Clapp '84, and Lloyd McKim Garrison '88.

The book is published by W. B. Wolffe '95.
