We don't wonder that the medic can afford cigars, can
dies, gum and etc. since it lias become customary with
thoBo renting rooms to them, either to turn them out at
the end of the first Veek and call it square, or let them
stay till the end of the month even, and then ask no rent
if they will but go. When this fails of its object, they
are again offered a "five" or "ten" and assured that all
will yet be well if they will only "grow scarce."

dial reception. The meeting then adjourned and all
went away feeling proud of tho Freshman class of 1888.
Whew ! What a nlgnt was that of Friday Oct. 8 ! Rain,

But according to announced principle of the Palladians,
that they would not be defeated by either storm. or Uu
ions, they met and had one of tne best programmes im
aginable. A few members of the Union society did them,
selves credit by joining in the chorus. We would also
commend the spirit which prompted a few Palladian
girls to weather the storm, for sake of thoir society
to nil, both gentlemen and ladies who were' absent that
evening.

A COMMUNICATION.
As one of the students, I wish to voice their general
objection to wading in tho mud as we must preforce in
passing from R street to tho building. Now, we don't
see why the Faculty cannot fix up these walks so as to be
permanently dry. Tho ash sidewalks, although very
pretty, no doubt, arc not extravagantly durable, and when
in a semi-plastic state, do not conduce to the mofality ol
the preps, and even the patience of those who havo en
dured these walks for lo, these many years. In thu'name
of that part of the suffering students wlio don't wear rub
ber boots all the year round, I call for a sidewalk'of some
durable kind. Asphalt or flagging will bo joyfully re
ceived. Anti-Mod'.'
