...with the greatest credit. Honors could be assigned to those standing in the upper classes. The great objection that will be urged against any general ranking system as this, will be the award of scholarships. This difficulty can be obviated by requiring those applying for scholarships to maintain a certain rank in their class work and to do other outside work on which they can be examined on the same basis and by the same instructor...
This is the season of the year in which the one hour examination inflicts its terrors on the student; and a strong cry of protest is heard from certain quarters.

The managements of the papers are alone guilty of the undue prominence and misrepresentation which these headings convey. This trick of newspapers is growing with certain Boston dailies. In fact this method of appealing to the lower classes, to those who hunger for excitement and glory in high colored descriptions, has outgrown respectable limits. Public decency calls for a reform. The prosperity of many papers that live by telling the truth in a truthful and respectable...
