HARVARD LEGAL AID BUREAU.

Seventy law cases are a good many for the Harvard Legal Aid Bureau to have handled in the few months that it existed last spring. It meant that every man on the staff had as average of three cases and that the Bureau took care of about a case a day. When it is remembered that cases are accepted only when the clients must have free aid or none, the full significance of the service rendered will be understood. It means that Harvard is entering with practical spirit into the life of the community, while, at the same time, her students are getting the benefits of work in a law office even before leaving their studies. From both points of view the Legal Aid Bureau is worth while. We hope that its success will increase this year and its permanency be secured.
