cy," General Williams reported. "Un-
der the direction Of the assistant
secretary Of war, great progress has
been made in the readjustment of

GETS
BIG DONATION
100000 To Be Used
To Rearrange Plan
Of Education

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Nov. 9.-P1-
A 100000 fund. given to Harvard
anonymously, is expected to make
possible the establishment Of a num-
Der of small colleges within the Uni
versity resembling the colleges of
Oxford and Cambridge.
The fund will be used TO build and
endow a group Of dormitories, dining
halls and common rooms to accom-
MEDIATE from 200 to 500 students.
Eventually IL is hoped to change
the existing system into a collection
of convenient sized. colleges, each of
which would be a separate educa-
tional as well as social unit.
Under this plan Harvard college
would be only the name given to this
collection. The college would, how
ever, award degrees and conduct uni
form examinations.
In making public the gift, Presi-
dent Lowell said:
"For a generation there has been
much discussion Of the policy OF
breaking up our large colleges into
smaller social units in order to Sc
cure at the same time the advantages
Of the large and small institutions
Many men here have felt that this
must come IL we were TO confer the
greatest benefit upon our under.
graduates.
"The present plan involves no
change in the method Of teaching;
and in fact u tutorial system lends
itself to IL perfectly"

Ionight the streets and shops were
brilliantly illuminated and the thor

Lieutenant Colonel Charles Burnett

The enforcement, oldest and most
solemn state ceremony surviving
among the modern great powers, Is
also the most costly.
According to preliminary estl-
mates il will cost the Japanese gov
eminent and the imperial family to-
gether approximately 100000 yen
(about S12, 600 .000).
Costs Of the enforcement are due
TO the long period covered by the
series of ceremonies; by the outlaws
necessary to produce in great detail

that Of the ancient court Of Kyoto;
by the tremendous mobilization Of
