CORPORATION TO THE RESCUE.

The Corporation has again come nobly to the rescue of Memorial Hall and guaranteed that the weekly price of board shall not exceed $5 during the months of February and March. We hope that nothing will prevent this guarantee from becoming permanent as it is of great value to the Dining Association.

The first month of the new American plan seems to have been fairly successful. At present the membership has naturally fallen off slightly because of the mid-years, but before that there was a decided increase in numbers. The members seem to be satisfied with the new system and it will probably be continued indefinitely. It is a pity that this institution which could be made to fill a pleasant and important place in College life should be in such straits as in the past few months. And we sincerely trust that things have been put on a sound basis.
