Its main purpose is to enable all of us, students of the School past and to come, to realize how others have labored and we have entered into their labors.

The portions of the text indexed under such topics as Library, Instruction, Case system, Graduate work, Discussion of law, F aculty relations to the govern igg boards, etc., together with the various bibliographies, may prove useful to those engaged in legal education. The practising lawyer will perhaps get occasional assist ance from the Bibliography of Legal Writings, while those who are considering the position of law in society may find help in portions of this same bibliography and that on Jurisprudence as well as the chapter on The Future.
