It is the spirit of the gift which is important, and which should be noted by the present Freshmen. It should make them realize their duty not only to carry out President Lowell's request in taking good care of the dormitories, but also to use well,--in studies, college activities, and friendships,--the great opportunities which the dormitories give them.
