'FOR THIS RELIEF--"

Last month the CRIMSON proposed a sort of open sesame into Widener where by books could be returned when the building itself was closed. Many borrowers, after studying late in the evening, would prefer a midnight pilgrimage to Widener before going to bed, rather than wake in time to return their books by nine in the morning. Still more, leaving Cambridge on Sunday for the day, they would be relieved of the awkward responsibility of returning their books between one and two, precisely the dinner-hour.

The Library authorities, quick to serve the convenience of the greatest possible number, have decided to give half the scheme a trial, and remove at least the second-named inconvenience. Consequently, books may now be returned early on Sunday mornings. If the new box proves its usefulness, is well fed and not abused, the other half of the plan can be carried out later.
