EDITORS HARVARD HERALD: I lately saw a suggestion in your editorial column, that examinations for the removal of conditions should be held in the fall, at the same time as the entrance examinations. Your suggestion is so sensible, and open to so few objections, that I hardly think it necessary to add anything to the arguments advanced in your editorial. But I would ask you to urge the proposed change, and endeavor to arouse the other college papers to a perception of the good that must arise from such a measure. Owing to a large amount of regular work...
...wish to say a few words anent the communication that appears in another column, for whether it is owing to parsimony or some other hidden cause, it still remains an enigma why a better attendance has not been given to the lectures under the auspices of the Art and Philological Societies for the benefit of the Assos expedition. The first, on the OEdipus, by Prof. Packard, drew but a very meagre audience. Mr. Agassiz was better supported, as was Prof. Goodwin, but in no wise as they should have been. The lectures have been exceptionally good, dealing with a class...
Number 3 of the first volume of Yale's new paper, the Critic, impressed us rather favorably at first glance. After reading the editorial column we thought that the Critic was designed to be a sort of a Nation among college papers - a field entirely unoccupied in college journalism.

...another column will be found a notice from Mr. C. E. Hamlin, secretary of the Pierian Sodality, calling attention to the kleptomaniacal tendencies of some persons as shown in their constant removal of society shingles that are placed on University. We say "kleptomaniacal," because we wish to be mild in our epithets, but we assure you that is not what we think about the matter. It is almost impossible to imagine more contemptible conduct than this removal of shingles. They can be of no possible gain to the men who take them, while serious inconvenience must result to the losers...
...hall is entered running nearly east and west, leading from one wing to the other, and furnishing communication between the large lecture rooms. This hall is lighted by a circular bay window at either end, and the effect of the hall is very much added to by a circular column of polished granite which sustains the centre of the bay. These bay windows also give light to the large lecture room on the northerly side of the building. This lecture room will be similar to that now known to students as Sever 11. The size is 50 by 73, while...
