The CRIMSON is better this year than ever before; and the improvement is mainly due to the men who have worked so faithfully on the paper through most of their college course and who have just left us.

He then issued notices and got up a table of twenty-four men (chiefly Law School men who had left Memorial). He buys the provisions himself, pays the servants and other little expenses, and gets his own board free for his services.
