CONNECTED with this subject is another; the manner of taking one's meals. Memorial Hall has often been suggested as the place where Commons ought to be, and a writer in our columns has argued that Commons should be made compulsory. But to us the English method, where breakfast could be provided in the room of any student, has always seemed pleasant; of course the arrangement here, quite different from the English, would make it impossible for the College to do such a thing. But really, to prepare a plain breakfast not much work is necessary, nor to prepare a light supper. One entry might unite, rent a room, and have what little cooking was necessary done in it by some one who should come and do the work and furnish the meals to the students in their rooms. The cost of such a manner of boarding would not equal what many now pay, nor, on the other hand, would it preclude ale, and perhaps claret, from men of moderate means. Dinner could be served in Memorial Hall for the whole College, and supper either furnished in the same manner as breakfast, or, if preferred, a man could prepare his own tea, toast, and ale.
