...will be put up again. All nonsensical talk about "championships" will be out of place, as the victorious eight-oared crew will hold one cup, and the victorious four-oared crew will hold another cup. We mention eights and fours as the most advisable form of races, and would suggest that the third race be open to singles. This seems such an excellent project, and the costly cups are prizes so well worth rowing for, that we trust the H. U. B. C. will lend their cooperation, as we have no doubt they will, and further as far as possible...

...have here, so that, with our superior advantages in this respect, there is no reason why we should not be able to get up as good a course of lectures. The chief difficulty, we know, is to get somebody to take hold of the matter, and we would suggest that some society, with the co-operation perhaps of one of the professors, follow the good example already set by the Natural History Society, and endeavor to give us an interesting course of lectures on general subjects...

...such a long walk as the distance now is. Either let the College be moved nearer to the Botanical Garden, or let the Botanical Garden be transplanted to some position nearer to the College.

For the sake of myself and the others who take the course, I hope the Faculty...

...examiner, who had evidently lost it, but the Faculty insisted on punishing me for his fault. I should not trespass on your space if mine were the only case of the sort, but I find that many others have suffered in the same way. I will not presume to suggest a remedy for this, - except more care on the part of the examiner, - but it certainly seems hard that I should have a condition on account of the carelessness of the instructor, and not through any fault of your contributor...

...should be made of extra width with this end in view. Stones should be sunk in the earth to mark the start and finish of the 100-yards; the 220-yards; 120-yards hurdles, with stones to mark the position of each hurdle, quarter-mile, etc. We would also suggest to the Executive Committee that this year they ring a bell in all the longer races when the men enter on the last lap. A cinder path is, of course, impossible this year, but a very fair track, like the old one, can be made by taking...
