...occupants. They are obliged to leave them to the mercies of Class Day crowds. When they come back to them in the fall, the complaints are frequent in regard to the state in which their rooms are left. It seems absurd to have to speak upon such a subject, but if the temporary occupants would use the ordinary care they do upon their own rooms, there would be no need of this...

Among the first plans of the Eastern Association was the formation of a club for the study of the various phases of household sanitary science. Practical investigation was made of the subject of drainage, plumbing, ventilation, etc., a bibliography was prepared, the results of the studies made were put in circulation, and material aid given to others outside of the society on this important but neglected subject. Careful study has also been made of the opportunities for work open to women...
