...their means. It seems to me that in such a general affair as a class dinner, an attempt should be made to bring it as nearly as possible within every one's power to attend, and certainly not, as in this case, to go beyond the price charged by previous classes. I most sincerely hope that '82, when it arrives to the dignity of a class supper, will take this matter into consideration...

It necessitates, when a class is as large as the present, much crowding, confusion, and delay at the polls. The earnestness of the Committee to secure an open election, and their zeal in urging such...
