...more inhabitable and more home-like. It seems a shame, when students put valuable engravings, books, or what not in their rooms, that these should suffer, from carelessness or absolute ignorance, almost certain injury if not ruin. The service is no better than that in a second-class hotel, and traditional negligence is exemplified in the daily maltreatment our rooms receive, The pay given these women is small, being about six cents per room a day; and almost every one would gladly pay more to have decent service.

But, on the other hand, it is doubtful whether class races and class crews are not incongruous with the present boating-system at Harvard, and whether the same material for University oars could not be worked up by club races, while the money necessary for the support of the Freshman crew could be given to the 'Varsity...
