SOME books have disappeared from the Yale Library, and the Library Committee have published a card in the Courant, threatening to make public the name of any person who shall be found guilty of taking a book from the Library. In reference to the new Chapel at New Haven, the Courant prints the following pithy editorial...
...seems to me that we could dispense with much trouble, and often mortification, by politely requesting our guests to call at some other time, or, in other words, exclude visitors from the gallery during meal-times.

Unquestionably the immediate benefit accrues to the graduating class and their friends, but indirectly the College gains, for it is brought favorably before the public, and the love for Harvard with old college-men is fostered by the maintenance of the gala-days of their Alma Mater, Class Day and Commencement. The Yard is always cleaned for Class Day, - perhaps the Class will appreciate its appearance the more if they know...
