The old policy of engaging papers before the subscriptions were paid has been abandoned, and the room was not opened till a sum had been subscribed sufficiently large to insure the payment of this year's bills. We hope that the present committee will be able to continue this business-like beginning. Now that the pictures have been removed, we hope that the College will not object to smoking in the room.
