It is sometimes argued that so long as the membership of the society is large enough to keep it in existence, those who have not joined can reap the full benefit of the society, i. e., the lowering of prices, while they need not pay the yearly dues of two dollars. But this is not strictly true, for the larger the membership of the society the lower prices can fall. Besides there is a sound of selfishness in this...

Now, after two-thirds of the year are passed (nearly half of which was lost in many cases), and men had begun to reap their advantages, the whole course is again thrown into confusion.

There is another class of people who will not advertise in a college paper because they think that the students...
...great deal of damage to carpets, and increase the danger of setting fire to buildings two-fold. It seems to us that if the college authorities should provide a good steamheating system, and charge the occupant of each room $25 per year for the benefit of it, they would reap a very large interest on their investment. If they can do nothing this year we hope that they will not let another year go by without furnishing us this much needed improvement...
