...place which was avowedly built for the use of the students should be closed to them at the hour when the majority of men are in the mood for work. As our correspondent of to-day truly remarks, the afternoon is the only time we have for exercise. He might have added that the morning is generally taken up by recitations- or ought to be.

...library must be during the day time. It is a lamentable fact that from some petty fear of a fire breaking out and destroying the magnificent collection of books, the college authorities have neglected doing anything toward lighting the library during the night. The argument of fire might have had some force during the days when gas was the sole means of illuminating public buildings, but since the introduction of electricity, which has now become superior to gas, the argument falls to the ground. As the case stands now, the only time a student can use the reference books...

...parts of our athletic system and that it has to win or lose like any other team. The success of the freshman should be the interest of the college at large, and '88, '89 and '90 should consider it their duty to see that nothing is left undone which might affect the result of the game with Yale...
