...seems that the committees' former notice on this subject was either misunderstood or else overlooked by the class, for very few lists have yet been sent in. The committee wish it fully understood that all lists must be handed in before April 3d, to ensure getting the pictures by Class Day. Those men who do not send in their lists before the spring recess have only themselves to blame, if their orders do not come, for Mr. Pach has declared plainly that he cannot promise to fill belated orders before commencement...
...faculty and the seniors,-are more or less in the wrong. But it is always inadvisable for outsides to attempt to pass any pronounced judgments on such matters, as the means of correct information are always limited.

The action of the committee in this one case is not intended to affect any future action which the committee...
...announcement, just out, of the second part of the "Philosophical Series" by Pres. McCosh will interest students of Philosophy. The notice reads as follows:-No. V.-"Locke, with a notice of Berkeley." It is shown that Locke held by a body of truth, and that he has often been misunderstood; but that he has not by his experience theory iaid a sure foundation of knowledge. No. VI.-"David Hume as expounded by Huxley." It is unnecessary to examine Hume's skepticism, but it is best to do so in the defense of it by Huxley. No. VII.-"A Criticism...
