Why is it that our ball room, standing within twenty feet of the electric plant, still has to be light ed up with oil lamps? It is a shame that this should be the case, where for the small sum I of thirty-five dollars, electric lights could be put in and much money saved. A very feasible plan is: that the ball managers for the commence ment of '96 invest their surplus funds towards gaining this , end. This should have been done last year, but most probably it was not thought of by the managers, and now we beg the present managers to look into the merits of the plan and carry it through, instead of pocketing the balance for the'r own individual benefit.
