They have a board to supervise their own government whose president is a member of College Government board. In this way they are able to cooperate with house students. Supervision and enforcement of rules for quiet and order makes this organization sound very forbidding indeed, but it is also the instigator of many good-times and conveniences. This year the town students had a cabaret party for freshmen and new students. Everybody had a grand time and made as much noise as she pleased. If you happen to see a new comfortable chair or a bright cretonne curtain in lower Adams, you may be certain that it was bought with funds from the yearly bake-sale of which the board has charge. A feeling of unity between house and town students is essential to a happy college life. Town Students' board has ever been the official mediator between the two groups. 19
