OBSERVANCE OF DARTMOUTH NIGHT CANCELLED
November 1918

Preparations had been made for the observance of the twenty-third annual Dartmouth Night in Hanover on the evening of September 30, but the serious condition due to the prevalence of influenza at that time made it necessary for the celebration to be cancelled. This is the first year since 1895 that this beautiful and characteristic Dartmouth custom has been omitted, but circumstances beyond the control of human powers intervened. Let us all hope that another year may see the College again in its regular routine, and in that case let us make the Dartmouth Night celebration of 1919 one long to be remembered.
