"And at Princeton."

Nearly every Princeton man has occasion to buy and sell furniture, not always upon the most satisfactory terms. Men buying are often forced to pay exorbitant prices; graduating men seldom receive full value for the furniture which they sell.

We suggest, as a remedy, the organization of a Student Furniture Company under the direction of the Bureau of Self-Help. The men behind the venture could make a reasonable profit and at the same time offer fair dealing to their customers. There is the difficulty of financing such a proposition, but even in the event of being unable to borrow money for payment at the time of purchase, the backers would find many men who would prefer a reasonable price in the fall to selling their possessions for a song three months earlier. --The Daily Princetonian
