...income of the society shall be derived from the annual fees of members, a commission of 5 per cent. charged on sales of second-hand articles, and a percentage of not more than 5 per cent. charged above the actual cost price on other articles sold to members. If, at the end of any academic year, it shall be found that the income has exceeded the necessary disbursements of the society by a sum greater than the usual reserve or contingent fund, then such balance shall immediately be paid over by the treasurer of the society to the corporation...
...more importance, for the effective work and progress of college life, than the election of a competent and suitable man for this position, by the overseers. While almost every one would have some particular choice, if the election rested with us, none will be disposed to grumble at the actual choice, provided that some one reasonably popular and efficient be selected.

A statement has also been made that the HERALD has a circulation of 2000, which of course is equally false. We can say, however, with truth, that our actual circulation is much larger than we ever expected to have within so short a time after the publication of our initial number, and moreover, we have every reason to hope that by the beginning of another college year the circulation of the HERALD will not be excelled by any college paper...
