COURTESY.

The playing of Fair Harvard at Memorial on music nights is a desirable thing but it can hardly be continued if incidents similar to last night's episode are to occur. A fair regard for order and decency does not warrant it.

As usual, both sides are at fault. The graduates of other colleges who are present have a perfect right to remain seated and to continue eating while the "loyal sons of Harvard" stand. True, courtesy might lead them to rise out of sympathy with the rest, but that cannot be demanded. Certainly any reprisal in the way of bread throwing by the resentful enthusiast on his feet is highly out of place. At least let there be courtesy on our side!
