Last week off Gonaives, seaport of Haiti, the burning rays of a tropical sun shone on well-scrubbed decks and burnished brass and steel made rainbows in flying spray. More than 100 U. S. warships strung out in a long grey line against lazily heaving waves and the deep blue of the sky. Huge battleships, their flags flying, moved along like imperturbable swimming pyramids; slim grey destroyers cut through the water as precisely as a butcher's whirling knife slices cheese; ungainly plane and submarine tenders waddled past. The only sounds were the faint swish of the waves...
...Treasury Mellon considerable satisfaction. Yet loitering lobbyites who glanced up at them as they entered the hotel, and the nimble-witted telephone girl who placed their after-dinner calls, recognized scarcely a face. James J. Walker, the mayor, they recognized. But he was only a guest. And deep-jowled Irvin S. Cobb, fat-jowled Senator Borah, curly-wolf Judge Landis, smartly tailored Speaker Nicholas Longworth, well-oiled little Roger Wolff Kahn (jazzy son of opera-patron Otto H. Kahn)-were only guests. The company itself was as anonymous as a banquet of the Boot and Shoe Retailers' Association...
...today. In 1840, the omnibus used to start from Willards Tavern, according to accounts a worthy pub which stood where the carbarn is today, and it took an hour, when the roads were in good condition, to get to Boston.

The service was more or less irregular, and persons waiting for the omnibus at the Cambridge end, were able to pass the time pleasantly...
...agreed upon the plan of a Memorial Church in place of Appleton Chapel, we should all either support them or be silent. It would perhaps not not be irrelevant to ask what Harvard is; the alumni, who love to chat over their old college days, and who occasionally reach deep into their pockets for the University, or the undergraduates, the graduate students, and the officers, who live its daily life. We do not wish to be petty and nagging, by calling undue attention to what cannot be remedied; but we confess that we are not yet sceptical enought to believe...
...goes on to state that the Harvard Athletic Association in the fall of 1925 established at the Locker Building on Soldiers Field, a well-equipped department of physiotherapy, with the necessary baking machines, deep therapy lamps, diathermy, and whirlpool baths, in addition to a complete X-ray and fleuroscopic equipment with the necessary dark room. During the football seasons, frequently as many as 150 to 200 men were seen in the doctor's room daily. Many of these required no further medical treatment than advice but any injury severe enough to keep an individual from taking part in practice...
