According to recent educational reports there are about 400 colleges in the United States. The value of the grounds, buildings and apparatus of these colleges amounts to $159,000,000, in interest-bearing funds, from which they derive their yearly support. Of this property Harvard has the largest share, property valued at over $10,000,000.

For the last ten days there has been a double force of men at work on the Harvard Union in order that rapid progress may be made before winter sets in. Within a week the building will be entirely roofed over, and the interior work will then be pushed forward. The contract calls for the building to be finished by June, but it will undoubtedly be ready before that time.
