Each of the editorials is forcible, for the simple reason that each of them has something to say. The first one, on the proposed University chorus, expresses itself freely, and in a way which will appeal to a great many readers. The second, concerning the Yard Fence, suffers a little from the fact that the point is put in the least important place. The third presents an idea for a "Political Union," which, during the present state of affairs, should certainly receive more than passing attention...
First as to posting the list of market prices. The vote mentioned was passed two years ago in the Foxcroft Club and was to be effective only for that year. Instead of the vote being "deliberately disregarded," the list was posted where all could examine it.

...statement by the Photograph Committee that only photographs taken by the class photographer "will be considered," calls for some explanation. If it means that Seniors who have already had satisfactory sittings elsewhere can not have their photographs reproduced in the Album, the reason for such a requirement is by no means apparent. In making up the Album in former years, the work of various photographers has been used, it being presumed that in each case a Senior submits his most faithful likeness, regardless of where or by whom it was taken. The question raised is why may not a Senior...
