...cannot compass the work prepared and ready for it. I would recommend greater publicity in the recitals of the club and a closer attention to a course of reading which would be of greater interest to the college at large. While I wish the society every success and extend it my cordial support and good wishes, I cannot but feel that it is not as comprehensive in its movements as it might be if it is sought to interest the students more largely in its plans and in tended course of action...

...hall depends to no small extent on the members themselves. The two things that have hurt the hall more, perhaps, than any others have been a failure on the part of members to make just complaints, and indiscriminate fault-finding. At $4.25 a week personal supervision cannot extend to the food and service of 720 boarders, and a member can do the management no greater favor than to report at once and fairly, any just cause for complaint.
