...undue supremacy over the other. Also, the opponents of co-education argue most strongly on this very point, for they declare that affection will get the better of intellect every time. And yet in spite of all, in spite of the general belief that at least affection would not suffer, while it might even be injurious to intellect, here are the young ladies of Oberlin actually finding the subject debatable. This, we say, is seriously significant. If affection is in any danger at Oberlin, what dangers must she not be in at Harvard, or Yale, or Princeton...

Those who take other people's property, whether from absent-mindedness or not, seem to have no regard for time or place. Memorial Hall and the gymnasium suffer alike.

Mrs. Livermore gave from her own hospital experience many interesting and thrilling anecdotes...
...sees that, although physical force may be on the other side, the government ought to be for the benefit of the people and not merely for the glory of the autocrat, and that it is his privilege to stand up for these principles, to fight for them, to suffer for them, like Cromwell or Sir John Eliot. He is the impersonation of the noble side of Puritanism; he lacks only its religious bigotry. He is the true hero of the poem even in Milton's mind, shocked as the poet would have been at such a thought. He carries...
