Note and Comment.

Speaking of our Co-operative Society, the Dartmouth says: The fact that Dartmouth is situated at a distance from any large town having much rivalry among its tradesmen, would, to a certain extent, prevent our formation of an association run on exactly the same plan: but yet in very many things co-operation among students would greatly lessen expenses. Books, stationery, furniture, coal, tobacco and all such standard goods might, through an association, be procured at wholesale rates, and furnished to students at much lower prices than they are now obliged to pay. The matter is well worth investigation, and a little thought upon it will, we think, waken an interest which will in the end be of benefit.
