Perhaps I can make my objections clearer by analyzing the effect which Memorial Hall fare has on me. I do not think that the amount of studying which I do is too much; I am always regular in my exercise, and a portion of every day is spent in some kind of relaxation; I take-every precaution to insure health, and yet I find that I have to force myself...

Raising the advertised price of rooms without giving notice is undoubtedly a high-handed measure, and although the requirement referred to in regard to the keys involves a principle perhaps, our correspondent will find, we think, that it involves but little expense...
