Mass. 3 was filled yesterday by the members of History 13 and a great many outsiders who came to hear Professor Hart's lecture on Presidential Elections. The system of choosing the presidential electors was explained and the history of the elections since the time of Washington were discussed at length. This was done partly to give an opportunity to the voting men of the class to go home and cast their ballots without losing a lecture, and partly to give an idea to the rest of the class of the manner of conducting elections today...
...utility. The article is interesting, aside from the attractive way in which it is written, as showing the attitude of deep thinkers on economics. Professor Dunbar has an extremely interesting and instructive article upon the economic plans of Alexander Hamilton, the refunding of the Revolutionary debt, the National Bank system, and the sinking fund.

So far, however, from accepting what this person...
...overseers at their last meeting requested the committee on government to "consider and report promplly on the advisability of making attendance upon recitations and lectures compulsory." This action shows plainly that either the overseers fail to understand the way in which attendance at recitations is regulated by the present system, or else labor under the delusion that in such a rule as they propose lies the only way of making students appear regularly at recitations. In the first place, at the present time the instructor is the judge as to whether or not a student comes to recitations regularly enough...
