THE ALUMNI ALCOVE
The attention of the Alumni is called to the Alumni Alcove in
the Seminary Library. This Alcove was established some years
ago and is intended to contain the publications of all those who
have been students in Princeton Seminary, and thus be a visible
and enduring monument of the large literary activity and influ-
ence of the sons of Princeton, who have done so much toward
moulding and directing the Christian thought of this and other
lands. It is believed that the Alumni will at once recognize the
desirability of such a collection and the consequent desirability
of making it as complete as possible. To this end they are
earnestly requested to send to the Library their printed works,
whether books, pamphlets or sermons.
