...petty mischief or misconduct brewing. This morning, after such a season of refreshing quiet, passers by the front of Sever were attracted by a legend painted across the rear of Appleton Chapel condemning in well rounded terms our faculty. Such childish tricks are undoubtedly to some degree thoughtless, and cannot therefore be visited with any severe penalty; and yet they exhibit to a disgusting degree a lack of refinement. If there had been any humor in the prank it might be pardoned; unfortunately, however, there was not a single element of wit displayed, and meanwhile strangers crossing the yard were...

The giving of cups also will, we believe, help along the end for which class games have partially been organized-the awakening of a permanent and general enthusiasm for football.

Wherever the truth of the question may lie, the fact remains the same that it is an injustice to the students to delay the opening of the building so long. There are doubtless some who are spending money which they cannot afford in temporary imigings, and certainly all are hampered both in the enjoyment of their privileges and in their college work. In such a state of affairs surely the college seems bound to take action. Even if all the rooms cannot now be opened we see no valid reason why students...
