Someone says that so long as there
is no othor place for tho students to
congregate it would bo too bad to
drive them out of tho one place where
they can get together and visit The
campus isn't a place to visit. It is de
voted, primarily and secondarily to
TjuBltfesa and if a student haBn't got
any work to do he ought to spend his
time some place where he don't inter-,

Those things are not said to empha
size the use of tho library as a hiere
study room. Those who are first of all
entitled to Its privileges are" students
doing reference worK. There are other

that the price of general board should
not exceed three dollars. With the
price of 'general board fixed at this
amount, and with the" price of "cou
pon articles -such as salads, cream,
chocolate, etc., remaining the same,
It vis expected that the majority of the
members will be vable to board for
$5 ier vcek or less.
