...order to secure absolute uniformity in the caps and gowns the Class Day Committee request that they should all be purchased of Messrs. Cottrell and Lconard, to whom the contract has been given and whose agents in Cambridge are the Harvard Cooperative Society. All caps and Gowns must be ordered there before April 1, and it is desirable that as many as possible should be ordered at once. The price is $6.50, payable on delivery.

...present year will probably mark the institution of a new custom and the revival of one of our old ones which was thought to have died out several years ago. The new custom is the wearing of the academic cap and gown by the seniors on Sundays during the whole year and not merely for a few weeks preceding commencement. The other is one of our most time-honored customs. Formerly each year in the fall occurred the freshman-sophomore "cane spree." This was held some moonlight night on the grass in front of Witherspoon Hall. Three men from each...
