MEN WHO CAN BE SPARED.

The mutilation of magazines in the Union has gone so far that drastic measures of some sort are imperative. There are a few who have become professionals in removing plates from the International Studio, Sketch, L'Illustration, and other illustrated publications. Sometimes a copy is cut to pieces within an hour after its arrival. Those periodicals which are particularly objects of attraction to the vandals might be kept at the desk and loaned to readers only on their signed applications. Even a system of espionage is justified; and the worst offenders, if caught, should be mercilessly discharged from the University. They will never do it honor. The CRIMSON will be glad to open its columns to the publication of names of such men, that all may know,--let us not mince matters,--who the thieves are.
