Now is the season when the man across the hall, if he hasn't an examination within a day or two, gets out his musical or unmusical instrument, and apparently amuses himself. The regulations prescribe hours within which he may do this, but the rule is more conspicuous for its breach than for its observance. For the short period of the mid-years, however, it would be a kindness to the majority if the virtuosos on these instruments would take the hint themselves, or if the proctors would insist. It is even not too much to ask of any well-disposed man that he will play very little in the hours when he has a technical right. It rather hinders than helps the study of a Greek chorus, to hear latter-day choruses played in the next room all the evening, no matter how finely they are rendered.
