EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON.-Your correspondent of Tuesday, who signs himself "A Member of the Historical Society," ends his communication by saying that "whatever can be done to retain the seats in Sever for the grown up people shall be done." It was painfully evident to every student who came to the last lecture later than a quarter past seven, that this rule had not been enforced, unless, indeed, we class the students themselves as infants. As a rough guess, I should say that nearly a quarter of the seats in the hall were occupied by boys from the Cambridge schools, probably, some of whom, to judge by their looks, will soon be old enough to enter the primary school. Waiving the question of how much good they can get from these lectures, I think that the students in the college have a prior claim to the seats. At the next lecture the rules which I quoted above should be enforced.
