SOCIETIES.

The Literary Societies have from the opening of the University enjoyed its fostering care. The ADELPHIC and PHLLOMATHEAN Societies for men and the ALETHENAI for women, occupy spacious halls which the members have furnished and decorated with taste and elegance. Meetings are held on Friday evenings throughout term time, are well attended, and are maintained with unflagging interest. They furnish excellent drill in writing, speaking, and parliamentary methods.

The YOUNG MEN'S and YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS are active and useful. Special organizations unite the students of NATURAL HISTORY, of CITIL ENGINEERING, and of MECHANICAL ENGINEERING.
