Warning the first year philatelists against over-specialization as a sure poison to their organization, Heyliger de Windt '12 of the Boylston Stamp Company addressed the members of the Stamp Club in their final meeting of the year in the Union last Wednesday night.
"The meetings must be varied to suit each member's individual tastes, and every collector, however small his collection, must be given equal prominence in its activities," he said.
Windt brought to the meeting some valuable stamp collections, which he showed to the members.
