 The list of courses offered to the so-
 phomore class for the year 1900-190l has
 just been made known It includes a
 number of changes in instructors, but I tie most important feature is the en- 1 larsement of the elective work by the
 addition of two new courses, chemistry 1 and European history. This year ten l courses are offered as against eight Of ! last year, and each member of the class 1 is required to take five and may, with i the consent of the faculty, take six No application for an examination to

 conducted by Professors Gooch and
 Browning. It will consist of lectures, laboratory work and written exercises, and ia an introduction to elementary chemical theory, the use of symbols and
 equations, and the study of the proper
 ties of the elements and their com
 pounds. The course is necessary an tecedent of the other courses in chemis- try. and of course in biology Those without previous training in physics, who propose to elect the course, are ad- vised to pursue that subject at the same
 time.
 It has flot been definitely decided yet who will conduct the course in Euro pean history This course is introduc- tory to the more advanced courses in European and English history offered in junior and senior years.

 The Yale News yesterday published the following letter in answer to the one written by MT. Gould concerning the i holding of the senior class supper at Savin Rock:
 To the Editor of the News.
 Whats all this invective against old l Savin Rock? The best place for our senior supper is the place already se- lected, Hill's Homestead The Young i Mems Republican club has no broad lawns, no cool verandas where i one may sit and breathe fresh air. Hills Homestead is also well suited for the il { which we intend to have. t The National Typothetae association is . of good men. but not one whit r better than the men of the class of 1900 Does the author of the recent com relative to this subject know what he is talking about? Probably not.
 He challenges students to show that they have been to Savin Rock for pur- poses other than immoral. He makes use of the expression morbid curios- ty," which certainly implies immoral ty. l have his own words before me; and I take it upon me as a personal duty to accept his every challenge. There is absolutely no sense in main- -aining that student may not visit Savin Rock, conduct himself in an or 1erly manner and return pure and spot ess before the world. More than once
 have gone there merely for the sake If the sea breeze or bath. Has the author of the recent communication yer been to Savin Rock? If so, what lid he go for? If not in what position s he to discuss the subject. Manifestly le is "hoist with his own petard."
 We do not wish to miss him at the lass supper We trust he will be brave md come along with us We wish to xtend to him the true hand of democ- acy. But if he is to be useful man n the world he must of necessity, come n contact with worse places than Savin Rock Let him remember that one may
