ARRANGEMENTS are now being made to secure comfortable quarters for those College societies whose rooms in the buildings must be vacated in the fall. The building which has been offered them proves strong and substantial, and the Corporation agrees to move it to any available spot which the societies interested may show a preference for. Rooms will then be fitted up to the satisfaction of the societies, and their household gods will be moved for them to the new quarters. Strenuous efforts have been made to prevent the disturbance of the existing order of things, but the Corporation say that they have become convinced, against their will, that it is for the best interest of the College that societies - and especially theatrical societies - should not occupy rooms in the same buildings where students live. The danger of fire is greatly increased when the rooms may be left unvisited for many hours; a meeting of men, many of whom are smoking, is another source of danger, while the inflammable material which collects in society rooms spreads the fire rapidly, and puts the whole building in danger. For these and other reasons, the authorities have made up their minds that it is better to have the societies outside of the Yard. Having made up their minds to this, they have exerted themselves to make the societies as comfortable as possible somewhere else. Associations with old rooms they cannot transplant, but what can be done they agree to do. The only expense to which the societies will be put is the insurance upon the building, which may amount to two hundred dollars a year, but which, when divided among four clubs, will not be a burden to any one.
