Officers' Fund Association.

An organization, to be known as "The Officers' Fund Association," was formed during the recess by the faculty and other officers of the University, which cannot fail to be of great benefit to University interests. Its constitution provides for the creation of a fund from which necessary aid may be rendered to the family of any officer of the University who may die while in service or after retirement, or who may be disabled by sickness or other misfortune.

The Board of Trustees, of which Professor Shaler is chairman, consists of President Eliot, Professors N. S. Shaler, F. W. Taussig, and J. B. Ames, and Dr. W. L. Richardson of the Medical School.
