We are sorry to be obliged to comment on the disappearance of reserved books from the shelves of the library. We had thought that the practice of secretly taking out books just before examinations, had died out, but it seems that we were mistaken.

As he remarked, if this practice is repeated, the privilege of consulting reserved books will have to be taken away, and men excluded from the shelves of the library.
