d conjointly a bridge over the bay of the Charles from a point on Beacon Street, to be determined in concurrence, and the city council of each city made an appropriation sufficient to secure soundings for piers and plans for a structure. Early in 1883, committees of the two city governments agreed upon the location of the bridge as an extension of the lines of West Chester Park. In February of the same year, the incorporators of the new Charles River Embankment Company, after a vexatious delayn conjunction with other proprietors controlling some fifty additional acres, began the work of improvement. The first section of retainingwall, one thousand feet in length, was built on a solid foundation of gravel during the summer and fall of 1883, and a large quantity of material was excavated by dredges from the flats fronting the wall and deposited on the lands behind. This was the first material work done towards the adornment of the Charles River basin and the devotion of its shores

0, but thinks there was nothing left of it by 1840, and he is sure that when he graduated in 1841 there was nothing like a gymnasium existing in Cambridge. In 1843 or 1844, a private gymnasium was established back of Wyeth's store on Brattle Street, in an old building which formerly stood where Lyceum Hall now is, originally used as a court-house. It may be interesting to note that this building forms part of the rear of the Whitney building on Palmer Street, where forty years later (in 1883) the writer opened a gymnasium for the students of the Harvard Annex, as it was then termed. This private gymnasium was conducted by a man named T. Belcher Kay, who devoted most of his attention to boxing. Parkman, the historian, and many of the men in college at that time, were pupils of Kay, though the gymnasium had no official connection with the university. During this period considerable interest was awakened in recreative games, football, baseball, and cricket then being played. Co

er learning in this school. Mr. Lyman R. Williston opened a school for girls, on Irving Street in 1862. It was removed the following year to its present situation. It is called The Berkeley Street School from its location. Mr. Williston conducted the school with success until 1870, and then transferred it to his brother-in-law, Mr. Justin E. Gale, who, in turn, passed it over in 1881 to Miss Margaret R. Ingols, who still carries it on. The Browne and Nichols School. In the fall of 1883, at the suggestion of Professor Child, Professor Norton, and others interested in the establishment in Cambridge of a school for boys which should effectively meet the demands of the new education, the Browne and Nichols School was founded at No. 11 Appian Way. The principals had graduated from Harvard only five years before, and they therefore brought to bear upon the problem fresh experience, both from the student's and the teacher's point of view.

ay be found in Cambridge. The Social Union, the Prospect Union, the Avon Home, the two Homes for Old Ladies, the Cambridge Hospital, all have their place. The East End Mission, besides its other work, has a flourishing Union Sunday-school. But a more distinct mention should here be made of two institutions whose work is of many kinds, but which give the most prominent place to direct religious service and services. The first is the Young Men's Christian Association, which was organized in 1883, and which has a large and vigorous membership. Its influence will be greatly enlarged when it enters the new building which is at once to be erected. The other is the Young Women's Christian Association, which was formed in 1891. The name indicates its purpose, and its purpose and achievement justify its name. It is doing a broad and much needed work for young women. It has a wide field, and could greatly enlarge its efficiency if it had a building of its own. This is at once its desert
