...more the smiling face of Lampy is to greet the scores of friends who await his first issue, and very glad we are that our college work is to be brightened by the fortnightly coming of his crimson-covered pages. One of Harvard's settled landmarks has the Lampoon grown to be, and one that we should sorely miss, we that have grown so used to awaiting with expectation its regular advent through our letter-slips.

But the progress of discovery had opened new heavens and earths. Whole sets of new studies has grown into existence, and Harvard was endeavoring to accommodate the old standards of culture to the new conditions. There was no disposition to undervalue Greek and Latin. The only desire was in keeping the old to get the best...
