It is nearly a year since compulsory attendance at Sunday service was abolished. After the board of overseers had wrought this much needed reform, it voted to recommend the reestablishment of Sunday morning services in Appleton Chapel. The faculty took no heed of this suggestion; moreover, in a few weeks they discontinued the evening services, which were very largely attended by the students. This year the same thing is being done. No longer do we have the privilege of listening to able preachers, whose words have done so much to inspire the men who hear them. We have heard words of regret spoken on every side by students who miss the Sunday evening exercises in Appleton Chapel. We sincerely hope that the faculty does not intend to discontinue wholly this time-honored custom.
