Those who have reserved or wish to
reserve rooms in Divinity Hall, should
write to the Committee immediately,
stating the nights for which the rooms
should be reserved. Rooms can only be
engaged for two nights, and at the rate
of $1.00 per night.
As was announced in the first circu-
lar, every member of the Class is ex-
pected, whether he can attend the re-
union or not, to subscribe $5.00 to cover
the general expenses of the Class meet-
ing, the expenses of the Class Secretary
and the cost of the Sexennial record,
while for those who attended the dinner
an additional $5.00 will be charged.
The success of the Sexennial reunion
depends on your making every effort to
come yourself and persuade the men
around you to come.

Mereurius Politicus.
The Yale Library has recently re-
ceived, as a gift from G. Clinton Wil-
liams, Yale ’47, a volume of the Mer-
curius Politicus (1650-1660), which is
next to the last in the set, being printed
about a month before the return of
Charles II. An interesting fact about
the volume is that it was’ evidently at
one time one of the set which has been
in the possession of the Yale Library
for some years. A full set of this work
is now held by Yale and the British
Museum together, the Yale Library hav-
ing the fifty-five volumes which the
Museum lacks.

marked success in their studies.
Clark University.
{Hartford Courant.]
It is now perfectly clear that Clark
University, such as Dr. Hall and his
scholarly coadjutors have made it, was
to the last a puzzle and a disappoint-
ment to its founder. His pet idea, as it
lay in his own mind, was to provide a
place where poor boys could get a suf-
ficient education at a cheap rate. He
started out to do at Worcester what Mr.
Cornell had done at Ithaca. An insti-
tution for graduates only, devoted to
original research, was something he
did not understand and that did not
appeal to him. He died unreconciled
to it.
