The following rule has been made by the Faculty at Wesleyan, to go into effect this year: "No student shall be allowed to represent the college on more than two of the following organizations in any col lege year, nor on any two that are in progress at the same time of the year, without special permission from the Committee on Administra tion: football, baseball, basketball, track team, glee club." Considerable interest is shown over a bequest of $400,000 to Yale University, made by Mr. Archibald H. Blount, of London. Mr. Blount is described as very eccentric, never having spent a penny outside of necessities and having a particular objection to Americans. There is no knowledge of his ever having had any connection whatever with the university.

Young Scadds (prompt ly speaking up from the toot of the class)—"Dad's check book has helped me about as much as any of . 'em, so far."—Ex. A Freshman. in Allegheny Col lege gives the following as justifica tion or Sunday studying: "If a man be justified in helping the ass out of a hole on the Sabbath day, how much more would said ass be justified in helping himself out."
