It appears that it was once the custom for each student who boarded at the training table to pay into the treasury of the organization as much per week as his board cost him at the table where he usually boarded, thus if his usual board cost four dollars a week, he paid this amount into the treasury, reducing the expense to the organization by so much.

...desire to call the attention of the rowing men of the University to the notice published in this issue by the captain of the University crew. This is practically the beginning of a new year in rowing affairs and we have a chance to again start out with a new energy and a firm determination to win back our old reputation.

The author seems to have caught the popular contagion among the novelists of the day and accordingly weaves a ??? thread through his story which gives it the appearance of a philosophical lecture rather than a novel.

Such a book may prove ??entertaining for those interested in psychical research, although...
