work. It is hoped that by granting
fellowships and scholarships in Amer-
ican institutions of higher learning
students, who might -not otherwise be
able to afford it, will be enabled to
continue their studies.
Since' the formation of tihe society
on December 5, 1776, it has exercised
a profound influence on our intellect-
ual life. It has taken into its memn-
bership many of the outstanding fig-
ures of our nation's political, judicial,
and intellectual life. For more than
the century its membership has been
coveted as the greatest honor of a
university career, but its value to
education has largely consisted in
this-its incentive to careful and
thorough scholarship. The broaden-
ing of the scope of its activity, indi-
cated by the campaign now underj
way, is the most encouraging single
announcement of rtceent years for
those interested in seeing increasedj
intellectual interest in our universi-
subtle humorous offerings. , N0o i' II E P D 1 A L O GUV E
