EDITORS OF DAILY CRIMSON.- We wish to call attention to a new phase of the petty thieving which has lately appeared among us. The Lampoon regularly issues a set of cards with the first drawing in the number upon them. These are posted by our agent at Memorial Hall and elsewhere, and materially aid the sale of the paper. For several months complaints have been made that these cards are regularly stolen, frequently before they have been on the bulletin board ten minutes.

This petty stealing of the property of a college paper speaks badly for the college tone, and as that is about all the faculty have left us, it behooves us to guard it well, and to teach men who are willing to decorate their rooms at the expense of a college institution, that such contemptible practices will not be tolerated. Though, of course, a man who is willing to proclaim himself a college thief from the walls of his room is beyond the influence of mere sentiment. For our part we guarantee that one "baby," whose name we have, shall stop this display of puerile aesthetics; and we will do the same for others detected at this small business if well-disposed students will send us their names.

Very respectfully, EDS. "LAMPOON."
