HOSPITALITY TO VISITORS.

The intervals between the prescribed excitement next week offer fortunate opportunity for a new social service. There will be a number of prospective members of the college in Cambridge taking the examinations for entrance, some of them men from the preparatory schools nearby and others from distant sections of the country. To both groups the stay in Cambridge will be a very significant event; and it will be well to make their visit a pleasant one. Men who know sub-freshmen should "show them the ropes" to some extent and not assume the ridiculously childish air of undergraduate psuedo-dignity which prejudices the stranger. It may help the sub-freshman to find himself sooner when he comes in, if he can catch a glimpse now of what is and what is not worth while. Let us at least extend courteous hospitality to the visiting "examination team."
