Titanic disaster. In the vestibule
saluted a sacred list, the honor roll,
where I found the names of the
aviator Chapman of Andre Cheron-
net and of Champollion. A fresco
by the painter, Sargent, showed all
of this ardent youth leaving for the
battlefield. 1t would be strange -
the memories that bind Harvard and
France so closely together should not
preserve the university from the
offensive return OF Germanism. In
this sumptuous library, modelled after
the Bibliotheque Rationale and the
British Museum Library, one of the
best in the world, the allied flags are
stIll on guard. In one room a colIec-
tion of French war medals was ex-
posed side by side with Il series of
German medals. The comparison was
