But let not the students, therefore, be relax, and fail to subscribe, Let every member go to the Co-operative office, and put down his name for whatever amount he feels like contributing. Let every man in college who is not a member join at once, and not longer enjoy benefits which are paid for by others. Some have failed to join the society out of carelessness ; others, contemptible specimens of humanity,-we feel sure they cannot be many in number...
Every student, when he shall have gone away from Cambridge for the last time, will look back to the time when he boarded at Memorial with no small degree of pleasure.

...before the existence of the society, and they realized that if it were to go under the drop of twenty per cent. caused by the society in Cambridge prices would soon be at an end. But the undergraduates of to day, with no experience of the normal Cambridge prices, feel no such sentiment leading them to back the society. The men who count dollars and cents and do not prefer to run up bills are. of course, members. Unfortunately the experience of this year has shown that there are only about 790 such men in college...
