...from the mark of the second safety, and be given to their opponents for a down on the former's twenty-five or thirty-five yard line. This would make the kick-off after a safety almost necessary, but at the same time should this rule be put into effect, the distance from the poles and the position of the ball would probably be sufficient to prevent a goal from the field. It is to be hoped that this matter will be thoroughly discussed before time comes to take decisive action upon...
Anent the Harvard Annex the Brunonian says: "What effect the advent of five or six hundred studiously-in-clined young women would have upon the spirit of our venerable sister college, we can scarcely predict. The question may soon be solved, however; for, unless the signs of the times are most deceptive, the university will, in the near future, be opened, even the Veterinary Department, to the fair sex, and the ancient halls may, ere long, resound throughout to the tread of lighter feet...

"He declares," says this Boston paper, "that an American boy of eighteen is not competent to select the studies which will give him the most valuable training or best fit him for active life.

...temporary and artificial, of such a character as would not prevent the final establishment of the industry, even without protection. Then he considered the course of industrial history and of protective legislation during the period from 1816 to about 1840. Before the tariff of 1816 there was no effective protective legislation, hence it is only to the period after 1816 that the question under consideration applies. The cotton, woollen and iron manufactures were then examined in their history during this period. The conclusion was reached that protection had, perhaps, benefitted the cotton manufacture while it was a young industry...
