To the Editor of the CRIMSON:
I guess it ain't very often that you get a letter from a Civil War veteran, is it? Well it wont get any oftener, not with the years flying by like they do.
The reason I wrote you was I wanted to tell you what I think of these bells they keep ringing all the time. Mr. Editor, I ain't heard nothing like it since I was a boy on the farm. That was down in Maine, though. Anyway, these bells seem to ring whenever I feel like lying down and taking a nap. And they are a nuisance, sir, a public nuisance. I want you to print this letter in your newspaper and maybe that will do something to stop this confounded dingle-dangle for thats all it is. Truly 'yours.' "Veteran"
Ed. Note:-
Since the CRIMSON has received so many letters on this same subject it feels sure that this communication from the "Veteran" expresses the universal opinion adequately.
