MEMBERS of the Senior Class who are so fortunate as to be catalogued in the last alphabetical half are to be congratulated on the possession of so obliging a monitor for morning chapel. A bulletin from him appeared this week on the South Entry door of Stoughton, announcing the total number of prayer cuts recorded against each man in his half of the class. Although this idea is novel and entirely original with Mr. Peckham, we see no reason why his method of posting the number of cuts should not be adopted throughout the College.

...hearth. In the middle of a very tempestuous night, that of January 24, 1764, the fire broke out, and as it was vacation, and but two or three persons were left in that part of Massachusetts.

They should either be painted and hung firmly on their hinges, or dispensed with entirely. One of the best features of the Yard at this season of the year is the view under the trees between Holworthy and Grays. The sunlight on the grass...
