The reflection intended upon the santa
rum management by the communication
in Tuesday evenings OPTIC was altogether
unjust and uncalled for. Due recognition
and thanks have been rendered all these
ladies and gentlemen who generally con-
tribute their services and patronage dur
ing the bazaar. The self-constituted re-
porter of the few evenings Of the fair
should have given ''honor to whom honor
is due' at the time he furnished his arti-
articles for publication. If -
who resents the slight he claims
has been shown some friends and patrons
who aided the bazaar, will carefully con
the columns of THE Optic, under date Of

were specially rendered all who helped,
and prominently mentioned Prof. Hand
