SENIOR FUND.

Apparently the currency stringency of last fall has had a dire effect on the Senior Class and what is more disheartening the disastrous effects have been by no means overcome. Another notice has been received from the Class Treasurer showing the deplorable state of the treasury at present and Class Day is less than a week off.

There is another possible reason for this state of affairs. Has the Senior Class come to the full realization of the fact that after all they are Seniors and that they are now laying the foundations of a fund which in time will be handed over to the University as a token of loyalty from the Class of 1908? Do they realize that unless the subscriptions are largely increased within the next few days there will not be funds enough to meet the expenses of the Class dinner, the last undergraduate affairs of the Class? Comparisons are odious at best and in this case they are especially irritating. The Class of 1907 had a balance last year of over $15,000 including pledges, while to date the subscriptions from 1908 aggregate $11,669, of which only $1,111 has been paid in. The time is short but the money must be forthcoming.
