"Harvard of Today," the booklet of the Harvard Federation of Territorial Clubs, put on sale yesterday, is designed primarily to give prospective students an idea of the University. It is an entirely novel undertaking and the publication has been somewhat delayed because of the difficulty of inaugurating a new work of this kind.

President Eliot has written the prentice, which deals in a detailed and convincing way with "What Reasons Can Be Given To An Intelligent Young American For Choosing Harvard University As His University."

Chapter I contains a sketch of the relations of the Federation of Territorial Clubs of the College at large, by J. B. Langstaff '13, its founder and first president. This is followed by a treatise on Scholarship" in the second chapter by D. E. Dunbar '13, who was second marshal of Phi Beta Kappa in his Senior year. He explains the system of instruction and of granting scholastic honors. W. L. Ustick '13 describes religious life to the University in the following chapter showing its connection with and inference on University life.

Chapter IV, "Athletics," is one of the largest in the book, profusely illustrated, with articles by the various sport captains. The chapter is opened with an account of the opportunities for daily exercise. After this comes a chapter on "Student Publications," by W. M. E. Whitelock '13, a former editor of both the CRIMSON and the Advocate, in which he explains the character and requirements of every regular student publication. Following this chapter is an article on "The Union," by H. R. Hitchcock, Jr., '14, vice-president of the Union last year, the feature of which is seven half-page illustrations giving several unusual views of the building. The other clubs in the University are treated by P. M. Hollister '13 and A. J. Lowrey '13.

Chapter VIII discusses thoroughly the location and environment of Harvard. In this chapter a keen appreciation of the advantages as well as of the disadvantages of our situation near a large city are shown. Next comes the question of student expenses. "A Typical Undergraduate's Expenses" is the title and the writer goes into detail describing all sides of the subject. Lastly comes a description of the Professional and Graduate Schools and an investigation into the high cost of living. Following these chapters there is a list of financial aids and the first complete catalog of publications concerning Harvard ever compiled.

The red cloth binding bearing a sketch of the Johnston Gate, the Harvard seal and the title make it a very attractive volume. It is essentially an undergraduate product with no official connection. Every effort has been and will be made to distribute it throughout the country.
