ate accustomed to see students on Sunday. - All that has been said above has been- from the standpoint of the stu dent. Now, then,;suppose we con sider it from the other standpoint, as every suggestion has to be consideresl .from both sides. - In the first place, this would elimi nate much of the inconvenience to the libra-rians in having books returned to the library after being out over night. Secondly, the difficulty of securing a night librarian could be easily ar ranged, now that we have as one of the assistants a student secretary. This. office could be filled by one of the boys, probably best, a Senior, or one familiar with the arrangement of the books, and thus afford a splendid op portunity to some one to help make college expenses, and also for at least five nights oT the week (Saturday and Sunday excepted), a quiet, warm place for study. A great deal more could be said in regard to this matter, but this is suffi dient to lodge the idea, and it is hoped that this suggestion may secure hearty support and results accomplished. * * * From the Cornell Widow.

The Senator's Purchases at "The Old Hoss Sale" I wandered down to George's last night and found the worthy "senator" greatly worried over the fact that he had invested $27.63 to very little pur pose at the recent "old hots '-sale." "Well, George," f inquired, "what (lid you get for your money ?"
