With a total subscription of $800 for the opening day of the drive, the University has now got under way in its campaign, and it is expected that the men will now follow up this mediocre beginning with far heavier totals in the coming days of the Loan Campaign.

What we have chiefly got to do is to clear out the last remnant of the old evil. This can best be done by treating a few conspicuous examples as traitors are treated...
