THE Strawberry Night of the Everett Athenaeum occurred at the rooms of the society last Saturday evening.

THE Senior class at Exeter this year is a very strong one. Out of thirty-three members twenty-eight will come to Harvard.

FRESHMEN not members of the advanced section in mathematics who wish to elect Mathematics 4 for the next year must study Chapters I., II., III., and V. of Salmon's Conic Sections (fifth edition), in order to prepare themselves for that course. The book should be ordered at once. - Bulletin.

ALL students whose windows are outside of the enclosed portion of the Yard are warned to keep them locked on Class Day.

THIS is the pleasantest season of the year to attend prayers, and many are availing themselves of this privilege who have not previously done so.

DURING the summer extensive repairs are to be made on the College buildings. Special fees are to charged for the use of a room during vacation.

PROFESSOR WILLIAM EVERETT will preach in Appleton Chapel next Sunday morning; and at 4.15 P. M. Dr. Peabody will deliver the usual baccalaureate sermon.

THE Reading-Room Association desires to dispose of the magazines and papers of the past year. Any one wishing to purchase will call upon the Secretary at 12 Stoughton.

MR. R. WINSOR, '80, is now playing regularly at centre field on the University Nine. His opening record was a good one, he having no errors, and two base-hits to his credit.

AT the request of several members of the section the second and third hours of Mathematics 2 will be interchanged in next year's Tabular View. - W. E. BYERLY.

THOSE who have enjoyed Mr. George Riddle's instruction in Elocution this year have expressed great satisfaction, and it is earnestly hoped that he will be appointed for another year.

THE Library Bulletin will appear in all probability on the day before Class Day. It will have, among other things, a continuation of Professor Norton's bibliographical notice on Michelangelo.

THAT was a very neat compliment that the last Advocate paid the Class of '80. As is usual in such cases, those who are the least known for "honest work" are proudest of the compliment.

IN Philosophy I. for the coming year, Locke, Berkeley, and Hume will be substituted as text-books for Descartes and Malebranche, which were announced in the Elective Pamphlet.

GROUND has been already broken for the new Gymnasium, and the prospect is good that it will be completed some time in the autumn. Proposals for making the old Gymnasium into a swimming-bath are now in order.

ALL students are earnestly requested to preserve the Tabular Views which the Faculty has so generously distributed free of charge, as none will be given out next fall. The cause of this new departure in economy is not known.

THE next number of the Crimson will appear on Commencement Day. It will contain the long-talked-of plans of the new Gymnasium, with a full description of the building. Those who leave before that date, and who wish copies sent, will please leave address at Sever's.

PARENTS who are afraid to send their sons to wicked Harvard would do well to put them at Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn. The Faculty of that institution have summarily suppressed a projected promenade concert in Commencement week. This is showing a very tender care for the morals of the boys. - Boston Herald.

THE originators of that new score-card which made its first appearance at the Amherst game on Wednesday are to be congratulated on the invention of such a Chinese puzzle. Many were disposed at first to regard the placing of two or three names in spaces by themselves as an "exalting of the few at the expense of the many," but later on their minds were relieved. Happy thought! Perhaps the man who had mind enough to originate that card may be able to explain the "curve system" of marking used in German VII. and the lowness of the marks in English II.

'T IS the last faded Senior

Left grinding alone;

All his happy companions

A roving have gone.

No chap of his kindred,

No "bummah" is near,

To dig away with him

Or pay for the beer.

I feel for thee, lone one, -

Thou 'lt lose thy degree.

A like fate is waiting

On thee and on me.

When finals are over

The Faculty pluck.

Alas! fata obstant!

Translated, - hard luck!

ON Class Day Juniors and Sophomores will be admitted to the Tree, and are requested to be there previous to the entrance of the Senior Class. Owing to want of space, the Freshmen will not be admitted.

MANY have not yet recovered from the shock caused by the rumor that petitions were to be sent home. The Secretary reports that the number of petitions per week has perceptibly decreased.

THE prizes of the H. A. A. have been on exhibition at Wyeth's since Wednesday, and have attracted much notice. The general favorite seems to be the Bicycle Cup given by the "Sporting Column" of the Crimson. The prizes were all made by Shreve, Crump, and Low.

APROPOS of the Socialist excitement in Germany, and the newly formed organizations in the West, "La Commune" has been prospecting for a raid on the arms of the Rifle Corps. Through the vigilance of General Lister the attempt was detected in season to prevent the raid, and the arms have been removed for the summer to a place of safety. The Corps possesses two hundred stand of arms, breech-loading Peabody rifles, which are valued at five thousand dollars.

THE Editor of the "Sporting Column" of this paper offers a prize racket to the best individual player at Lawn Tennis in the College proper, i. e. in the four classes of the academic course. A tournament will be held on the first four days of next week, from 3 to 6 P. M., provided ten men enter. The entrance-fee will be fifty cents, which will go toward partly paying for the prize. An entry-book will be opened at Bartlett's, which will close at 12 M., Monday. The contestants will be drawn in pairs, and the winners of the trials play on until one man remains unbeaten. The place of playing will be written in the entry-book. Umpires and scorer will be appointed later. Those who are interested in Lawn Tennis should not fear to take part in this tournament. Most men are now through their annuals, and this affair is intended to fill up the few dull days before Class Day, and to promote sport.
