Such victories won by a team in the face of discouraging lack of interest show the same kind of spirit which has made Harvard comparatively successful recently in the more popular branches of intercollegiate sport. We do not like to appear with the time-honored and conventional formula, "We urge every member of the University to support the team," but we believe that la-cross deserves more attention than it now receives.

The formula of Marx is that all wealth is due to labor, and therefore all wealth is due to the laborers. His scheme was to have the product of an hour of labor exchange for the product of an hour's labor in any other employment...
