reading the summary of the report, one's attention cannot fail to be attracted by the portion devoted to the description of the proposed alterations in Gore Hall. After the long years during which our students have been compelled to content themselves with the antiquated reading-room accommodations afforded by our library, it is pleasant, to say the least, to learn that any improvement has even been thought of by the authorities. The suggestion of providing suitable accommodations for those students who are not resident at the university is a valuable one. Such provision for "day students," would, in effect, be equivalent to founding a system of small scholarships; since many men of small means, who live in town within easy travelling distance would be enabled, while living with their families and thus avoiding the expense incident to a university residence, to avail themselves fully of our educational advantages.
