Ch arity Continuing its policy of former years, the student body united in donating small sums each week into the school charity fund, which is turned over at the end of each year to several institutions, including the Boys' Brotherhood Republic, the Glenwood School, and one other equally needy organization. In connection with this work, the school received the honor of having one of its delegates to the junior Red Cross Council, VVilliam G. Swartchild, elected president of the Council for the second successive year. In summing up Harvard's charitable activities, let it be said that the school firmly believes in the famous words of Coleridge: He prayelh best who loweth best JH things both great mid slnnlll. For the dear God who lowflz ur, fle fzzade and lofveth all. Tieless Friday At intervals on Friday, lwarch the twelfth, one might have heard the following brief conversation: Say, what's all the commotion down at the other end of the hall? That fellow in the center looks like he was having his throat cutf' That's nothing, theylre only taking off his tie, and he isn't so keen about it. And by the way, off with your own tie. You're no privileged character. Yes, it was Tieless Friday, one of the school's sacred traditions. The idea was originated by the class of '25, and the day this year produced excellent results, yielding in the vicinity of three hundred and fifty gorgeous bits of neclcwear, which were immediately turned over to the Boys' Brotherhood Republic, where no doubt they will be sincerely appreciated. Donlt be downhearted, fellows, if you lost your favoritesg there are plenty more good ties in this world. , 5 , , ,fi LX-gggvgg . E ', sf , , -in A X ,X i E W. , ,A if-aff, ,,, . .

These monthly gatherings of the higher department were with striking success, and were used for a number of purposes. doughty Mr. Schnadig, as chairman, did much to assist in the development of school spirit by strong and often caustic vociferations upon a variety of subjects. At one time the rewards merited by our deserving gridmen were given them before the assemblyg at another, an interesting talk on the Junior Red Cross was made by a Miss VVright, followed by a well known Red Cross wartime speaker, Dr. Green. On still another occasion the assembly listened attentively to a speech on conditions in Turkey and Armenia. These instances serve to show clearly the advantages which the student body may gain from such an assemblage, and it is our earnest hope that the practice be furthered by succeeding Senior classes at Harvard. Alpha Delta Sigma lVith the graduation of the present Senior class a club will auto- matically become nonexistent, which for four long years has guided the destinies and policies of the class. Organized in the fall of 1922. after the pattern of preceding clubs, the Alpha Delta Sigma soon began to be recognized through its regular weekly meetings as SOIDC- thing of a power in the school's activities. From the first it encouraged debating and speech-making, and under the leadership of its Fresh- man president, Jack Franks, it continued to gain in prestige. In its second year, with John Karger holding the gavel, several interesting and exciting debates were held wi-th the remaining high school classes in which the Soplhomores broke even. The third year saw Mel Pfaelzer directing the club,s activities, and many alfairs of importance were brought to a climax. The class during that year purchased its graduation rings and acquired further distinction by managing Harvard's first Junior Prom. The honor of presiding in the club's fourth and last year went to James Freisleben, and regardless of the fact that its various doings were slightly curtailed by strict faculty supervision, nevertheless the club's period of existence was satisfac- torily terminated. Its name and renown will doubtless remain many years in the hearts of both alumni and students. .1 v ' .-' iw ..,'5r' .1 J L ' 1,-. - X 'aw'-. .

EDGAR GOLDSMITH Advertising Contest Each year, when the task of editing the REVIEVV is brought to a head, our ad manager, with the helpful CU suggestions of the Staff, strikes upon some plan of action, in order to arouse interest in the o-btaining of advertisements. This year the success of our con- test was unprecedented. Classes were kept notified of their respective standings by huge thermometers on the bulletin board, in which the mercury was seen to rise slowly but steadily, as every morning certain students were seen trooping in to see lVIel,l' with their ad contracts tightly clutched in their hands, and with radiant smiles covering their countenances. The eighth grade was slow in starting, but, led by the veteran go-getter, Danny Schuyler. soon obtained a substantial advantage, which they held until the close of the contest. In addi- tion to this, there was an individual campaign that waxed so hot toward the closing date that the REVIEVV was compelled to give two awardsg one to Edgar Goldsmith, who beat Danny , Schuyler by one ad in the race for the most adsg and the other to Danny Schuyler, who brought in more space than any other contestant. Thanks are due for the success of the contest to our own ad man- ager, lllelvin Pfaelzer, and to the teachers who so ably helped him in his diflicult task.
