...while engaged in catching flies in the air during some uninteresting lecture, that it would be profitable for others of equal curiosity with myself, if the various busts and statues so profusely scattered through our recitation halls were decorated with placards telling what each represented. My own case, I feel sure, is daily repeated; where some twenty busts line the walls it is quite a tax upon a fellow's knowledge to expect him to name them off to his own personal satisfaction and with sufficient glibness to insure some appearance of accuracy. The suggestion is not important, but deserves...
...Princetonian of Oct. 13th says: "We had hoped, in this number, to say something definite concerning the movement among the colleges, restricting the excesses into which athletics are running. Our own faculty have, as yet, the matter under consideration, and have not therefore announced their policy.

But we cannot suppress our astonishment at the meagre audiences which gather to hear the greater part of these readings. Every man who in the future will say he spent four years at college, could reasonably be called upon for some acquaintance, however superficial, with the masterpieces of Greek and Latin literature, and comparatively few of us would...
