The collectors, will make a thorough canvass of their dormitories, and wagons will be sent around this evening between 6 and 8 to facilitate gathering the books. All those who cannot give up their books at this time, but could do so at the end of the examination period are requested to notify the collector, or H. E. Wetzel, Phillips Brooks House.
