ADVOCATE PRIZES AWARDED

First and Second Graduate Prizes Divided.--No First Prize Given in Undergraduate Contest.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The announcement of the award in the Advocate Prize Essay contest was made at the recent forty-sixth annual dinner and reunion held at the Hotel Victoria, Boston. In the graduate competition the outcome was so close that the first and second prizes, together consisting of $250 were divided equally between W. C. Greene '11, of Baltimore, Md., for an essay entitled "New Wine and Old Bottles," and C. Warren '89, of Boston, who wrote on "A Plea for Personality in Professors." No first prize was awarded in the undergraduate competition since the judges considered no essay to be of sufficient merit. A second prize of $50 was given to C. H. Weston '14, of Merion Station, Pa., for an essay on "The Problem of Democracy at Harvard." The undergraduate competition will be renewed next year in hope of stimulating more original contributions.
