The first meeting of the Cosmopolitan Club this year was held in the parlor of the Phillips Brooks House yesterday evening. F. Bela, 1 Med., the president of the club opened his speech by welcoming "everyone who can set aside nationality and take up humanity." "We know the word enemy," he said, "only to deny its significance for ourselves." The main point of his talk was to tell the members of the club that the friendships they made here would be shared by their peoples in future years.

M. Songkla, Sp., the next speaker, defined the aim of foreigners in coming to Harvard as being to study America and Americans as "live specimens", to enrich themselves by the exchange of ideas, and to bring forth the motto of the club "Above all nations is humanity."

Fu Chang considered it is not enough to merely come together but that it is necessary to go deeper, find something more eternal, and see truth and justice.

Captain Amann told what the men in France are fighting for, and Professor Hurlbut ended the meeting by expressing his profound admiration for France and contrasting the old Crusades with the present war.
