A well founded complaint has come to us from many quarters relative to the poor condition of the bath accommodations of the gymnasium. It has happened not merely once, but many times, of late that the supply of hot water was entirely exhausted so that men were left the choice of waiting half an hour for a warm water bath, or of bathing at the time in cold water. Now all this would be pardonable if the gymnasium were poorly or insufficiently equipped; but when such excellent facilities are at hand as those we have the case is decidedly different. We are not suffering from poor accommodations, but apparently from simple carelessness.

Another matter, too, relative to the gymnasium demands attention. The cement dripping floor just outside the shower-bath is not kept in proper condition. The outlet for the waste water is often stopped, and the floor itself sometimes far from cleanly. In this state of affairs something should be done. A little work would remedy the difficulties, but continued carelessness makes them only more obnoxious.
