...study Greek as Lady Jane Grey did. I believe that in that chain of fords with which the fair host of the amazons is engirding the English universities, I find that in the happy families of your mixed American universities out West, they are studying it already." This is certainly a sanguine view. Hitherto Greek has seemed to be the bane of the female race, and it is certainly new to believe that out of all this struggle between Greek and science will come any such complete and sweeping victory as this. Certainly there is bound to be a reaction...
...would seem, should there be any such factor left in Harvard life as "class feeling," as if the pennant offered to the class winning the greatest number of events in these winter meetings ought to arouse a certain amount of enthusiasm. The competition for it will be very close, and it is entirely a matter of speculation as to which class will receive it.

That certainly is a good showing,-though I must admit, sad as it may seem, that Yale sent...
...such as this. Word-jugglery is often effective on party contests, but we cannot but think it harmful here. That is to say, we believe that those who support the new crusade often fail to grasp the real evils which have called forth this reform movement, because of a certain mental obstinacy on their part in only considering one aspect of the evil. It is true that it does no particular harm to attach to the term "professionalism" the peculiar connotation which is given to it by the Advertiser writer. We do not believe, however, that under a categorical examination...
