It is well to remind the seniors again of the necessity of taking precaution against embarrassing accidents at the Tree Exercises tomorrow. Last year men were urged to provide themselves with canvas jackets and as a result nothing disgraceful happened. Until some stress was brought to bear on the matter the scenes at these exercises were at times very unpleasant and entirely out of the spirit of the day. Visitors, especially ladies who formed a large part of the spectators, must have felt a strange uncertainty when they took their seats, an uncertainty which often proved later to be well founded. However, this need not be if the men will bear in mind the suggestion of the committee and see that they are securely clothed. The tree exercises are very interesting so long as they are kept within bounds of propriety but they are easily spoiled. If every man will see to his own attire there need be no trouble of any kind.
