We are continually tempted to complain that the faculty fail to give us one advantage and another which the students of other colleges enjoy. It is, therefore, particularly pleasant to occasionally congratulate ourselves on the points in which we are more favored than others. Most of us take the reading room very much of course, and hardly think to thank the powers that be for the pleasure and profit we derive from it, or realize that even such a well equipped college as Harvard has no such institution. A recent editorial in one of the Harvard papers laments that "While Yale has a reading room of the very first-class, " Harvard is entirely unprovided for in that particular and hopes that the fact, "That Yale the college itself bears the larger proportion of the expense of the room, while at Harvard it would be impossible to obtain from the college more than the mere use of a room without light or heat," will not prevent the students from starting a reading room for themselves. Verily, Yale is not behind the times in all respects.-[News.
