...CRIMSON and turn our attention to thoughts of vacation and home. We would that all students could share our pleasure in Christmas anticipations, but we suppose some few are compelled to remain in Cambridge, and seek mental strength from the library, and physical satisfaction from the Christmas dinner at Memorial. For the Jester and our associate the Advocate, we would wish all the blessings of the season and renewed strength of wit and literary acumen. We rejoice in the thought that the faculty can now have a few days in which to repair their wasted energies and gird themselves...

...management of Memorial Hall has planned, we learn, for a Thanksgiving dinner that will do justice to the day and the desires of those poor unfortunates who are deprived of a share in the family turkey. With the price of board at $4.00, it should become the policy of future directors to vary the prescribed courses at Memorial by inserting a Thanksgiving day elective, a course that will broaden and stimulate the inner man. We heartily recommend this course for all who spend the day in Cambridge, and trust that it will meet with their approval...
