Communication.

To the Editors of the Crimson:

Acting upon the requests of several members of the University I wrote recently to the World's Columbian Exposition to ascertain the terms upon which students are to be employed as guides at the Exposition grounds. Full details have been sent to me, and I have posted them in the lower entry of University Hall.

Briefly stated, the facts are as follows: The Columbia Rolling Chair Co, which has a monopoly of the transportation of individuals in the Exposition grounds, wishes 1600 students to take charge of its chairs. It promises a good commission, but makes no guaranty. Application must be filed by January 1, 1893. Uniforms must be ordered at the same time. Candidates must report for duty "by April 20, at the latest."

Obviously these terms will not attract students who are candidates for degrees in this university.
