Nearly 500 Princeton students have signed papers approving the formation of a military company, the plan for which was received favorably by the faculty a short while ago. A course in military instruction may begin in February, 1915. Membership will be voluntary, and will entail no compulsion in time of war. During the winter, according to the plan, there will be drill work, and in the spring outdoor manoeuvres. There will also be practice in rifle handling and shooting. It is planned to have the army furnish a commanding officer, and supply arms and amunition...
...business has so greatly increased during recent years that an enlargement of the present building cannot be any longer delayed. During the Christmas season it became at times practically impossible to handle the trade in the book and stationary departments. The proposed enlargement and the new store-front would entail an expenditure of about $50,000, and this in turn would mean a considerable increase in capital charges upon the business.

Both Yale and Harvard have at present a competition for old and honorable prizes within their own walls. Here there is the Bowdoin Prize and every year a large number of excellent pieces of work are submitted in competition for it. With an intercollegiate contest, the best of these...
Obviously the distribution in this way of tickets for three games will entail additional expense. It is unlikely that this additional expense will account for the extra profit which will be made with the price of admission thus advanced. In making the burden of financial support of athletics heavier, in one direction, the Athletic Association may reasonably be expected to lighten it somewhere else. We suggest the abolition of subscriptions as a most welcome relief...
