The class of 1873 has voted to postpone its annual luncheon and dinner at this year's Commencement and turn over to the American Ambulance Service at Paris the money that would otherwise be used to defray the expenses of the two gatherings. The idea is extremely practical as well as highly commendable; and the action is typical of the hearty response of the University and its graduates towards alleviating the suffering on the European battlefields.
The class of 1873 is making a real sacrifice which cannot be as keenly felt by the young undergraduates as by those men, more than forty years out of College, who get together only at their Commencement anniversaries.
