The Memorial Society will hold a morning service at 8 o'clock on Tuesday, November 26, the 306th anniversary of John Harvard's birth. The meeting will take place in front of the John Harvard statue in the Delta, which will be wreathed in honor of the occasion. "Fair Harvard" will be sung and a large number of undergraduates should attend in order to make the singing a success.

Historians have been unable to discover the exact data of John Harvard's birth, but the 300th anniversary in 1907 was celebrated on November 26, and this is the data now officially fixed upon.
