DURING the last two weeks the Class-Day question has been carefully, and for the most part calmly, debated. The possibility, and even the advisability, of continuing the old class organization and fete day has been seriously questioned. Such radical differences of opinion have been expressed that now the expectation of a peaceful reconciliation exists only in breasts naturally buoyant with hope. The situation, as we understand it, is this: a large number of those who made up the coalition party in the class meeting, which caused the whole trouble, see now that they misjudged those whom they regarded...

The annual squabble arises from the fact that different "interests" insist on being "represented" without regard to any principle of reason or of justice. If the members of the present Senior Class could...
...SHOULD like to point out to the Seniors a singular insatiability of former classes in the matter of Class-Day orations. Not content with sitting in the Chapel for two hours, on what is well known to be the hottest day of the year, and listening to an orator who seldom has much to say that is worth hearing, they have been in the habit of adjourning to the open air to solace themselves with another oration...
