...morning. The frailty of human nature forbids it being otherwise. We may be able to endure the harassing catch-question method (although the Crimson exclaims against even that) but the instructor is going too far when he makes the classroom the place for such childish remarks and attempts at reproof which have been so common lately in the section in question.

We should imagine that such gentlemen would have the sense to choose a time more fitting than that during the hours of meals to pay their visits to Memorial Hall...
