BOOKS.

The second edition of the songs of Harvard is the same as the first, with the exception of the omission of the song "Every Day '11 be Sunday." The printing of the song was under a misapprehension as to its ownership. Although an attempt was made to retain the song by a settlement, the attempt failed through the cupidity of the owners. The action of the firm concerned is certainly questionable, and has been widely censured.

No member of the university should fail to possess a copy of the "Songs." The compilation is complete, and contains several songs now famous throughout the world. In appearance the book is very artistic, and the typographical work is unexceptionable. It deserves the widest sale, and it will undoubtedly receive it.
