...during the day with recitations and exercise to get at least a few moment's reading. We know too well the old cry that if men want to read they can do it in the daytime, but the fact remains that men do not go to the library as often as they should. Surely the expense of putting two or even four electric lights in the library would be small, since all the machines necessary for generating electricity are in Boylston. If this should be done the library would be filled during the long winter evenings with...

...class to carry its vote, unfavorable to the Republican candidate, on a transparency in the parade, as a breach of hospitality to the republican party. In our opinion, by far too serious a view of the question has been taken. It is unnecessary to repeat what has so often been remarked, that the students, as shown by the burlesque costumes worn in former years, regard the whole parade as a lark, Each of the other classes will carry the result of its vote, and the senior class has the same right. Indeed, if the senior class alone carried no such...
