Abstraction of personal property, i. e. stealing, is the latest and ever recurring complaint. Hats, umbrellas and books, all disappear in a most sudden and mysterious manner. Those who take other people's property, whether from absent-mindedness or not, seem to have no regard for time or place. Memorial Hall and the gymnasium suffer alike. But to speak seriously, things are in a bad condition when a man cannot leave his hat on a hook in the gymnasium and find it again after exercising. Affairs are just the same at Memorial. Books and umbrellas disappear as rapidly there. Moreover, we cannot lay all the blame on that convenient scape goat, the mucker. There are some men in college who have not the slightest sense of honor. Who are they? They should be discovered and properly punished.
