How Shall It Be Done?

It is asserted that the C'horal Union plan is ahead in the voting now takiiig place, as to whát method wou ld be preferable in seating the tvu'dieme e for the 8. L. A. If the audienee i.s to dally a-long as it did at the last lecture, that of Prof. Hirsch, then by iall mean the Choral Union plan is rtlie best, for then all lectures and entertainment can commence on time ; leverybody will be in their seats and j-eady. Prof. Hirsch remained on the platform ia iull half hour before heeould venture upon liis address, and then he ;-vas annoyed by late corners pnshing throiigh in front of long rows of people to get to their seats - which were frequently fsvithin a numler or two of the other end. That is one oí the igreatest objections to the present nxethod. People di.slike to reinain upon the natural wood cushioned .-cais of University Hall longer than possible, and in tlieir nnxiety to favor them-selves they disommode an enentire audienw. For it is annoying to not only very person in the aiulience for hese late corners to push tuto thdr seais, but also to the leeturer himstilf, fïrhom it disooncerts by the bustle and rustte. If the S. L. A. would always commence promptly on time, and would close the doors -vvhen t(he lecttire commenc 's, as does the Ghoral Union, (tihen the present plan is undoubtedly thc best that cou'd be devised. If seats are to be reserved permanently, ïor ilie season, they should be sold with that understándyng in .the firet place.
