WE have bad but a few days' experience of the early-hour system, and already complaints are heard about what before was anticipated as sure to bring inconvenience. The vote is cast, but before we relapse into "humble acquiescent silence," we would suggest how one cause of complaint might be done away with, bringing little or no inconvenience to the domestic economy of Memorial Hall. At present lunch is from half past twelve to half past one; the students who come out of recitation at twelve are obliged to waste a half-hour before lunch, or at least to employ such a small space of time to little advantage. This half-hour is of some importance to those who have recitations early in the afternoon, and would be of use but for its coming at such a time, and making it impossible to give continuous attention to the study of an afternoon lesson. This inconvenience could be easily overcome by having lunch served from twelve to half past one, and there would still be a half-hour more between breakfast and lunch than there was before April 1.
