...oral, and are held once a year. Religion, as a study, is compulsory, but attendance at chapel is not! As the students have no base-ball or other sport, they turn their surplus energy to the discussion of national polities, and so it happens that the universities are hot beds of Nihilism and other reforms. College societies and meetings are strictly prohibited and an assemblage of half a dozen students is likely to be dispersed. In this case by a sergeant of police and a few men, instead of a registrar and battalion of proctors. As a rule the students...

...Marble's put out. Willard scored a run for Harvard by making a tremendous drive to right field for three bases. The next three men at the bat struck out, but Willard scored on a wild pitch. Neither nine scored in the third inning, though flarris sent a hot liner to centre field, which was caught in fine form by Jones; while, for Harvard, Winslow made a clean hit, only to be left on second. Amherst got two men on bases in the fourth inning, but they were kept from scoring. Harvard scored one run, Allen getting his base...

...only cause of this expansion is a very natural one, namely, the heat of the seller's eagerness after the almighty dollar. Heat expands, and cold contracts; so we learned in freshman Physics. In what way are we to send a good cold draught across these now red hot prices? The question is a difficult one to answer. A few years ago the Co-operative Society reduced very materially the temperature of the prices of other things; but did not (probably because it could not) do anything regarding the prices of the pamphlets and syllabi used in such large numbers...

...indeed a youth of my turn has a better chance to gain the affections of a lady of her character than any other: but my mind is in such an agreeable situation, that being refused would not be so fatal as to drive me to despair, as your hot-brained romantic lovers talk. Oh, Willie; how happy should I be if she consented, some years after this, to make me blest." It is almost unnecessary to say that the 'Dulcinea' did not make him happy "some years after this," as he so ardently desired; and perhaps it is equally useless...

...very valuable and most popular courses in college. Therefore, every attempt should be made to have the lecture room in its comfortableness in accordance with the popularity and interest of the course. But complaints are continually made that the lectureroom is altogether too hot for the enjoyment of the lectures. Men who climb to such a height as the top of the Museum, expect to get above the regions of intense heat; but in these expectations they are terribly disappointed. A temperature of eighty or ninety degrees, Farenheit, is too hot for the natural continuance of life, to say nothing...
