...Corporation, a few words might be said. It is well known that the expenses of the Nine are mostly met by gate receipts; but as no more admission money can be taken on Jarvis, a large part of the Nine's support is taken away, and consequently larger subscriptions must be raised. Thus the Nine, which was before almost self-supporting, becomes largely dependent on the students for support. No games can be played on Jarvis with non-college clubs, and of course college games will not be played, as no entrance money can be taken. No games whatever will...

In regard to the injuriousness of late study we will say nothing; but those who do not approve of it would be forced into it by late dinners, and the larger portion of the hard students, those who intend to do the heavier part of their work in the evening, would find themselves in no fit condition to accomplish much...

Exceptions occur, and yet perhaps the larger part of the leading fifth of most classes are from schools of no general reputation. The reason for this lies in the fault of many of the most popular schools in the country. Too many men who enter with honor rely entirely on their fit, and, feeling for the first...
...only vast knowledge of technicalities, but also of the aspects of nature; and as this knowledge is possessed by comparatively few, few can rightly judge of execution. The thought and feeling expressed in art, however, are common to mankind, and only differ in degree and quality as a larger or smaller sum of the best human faculties have been called into exercise. Remembering this, we do not see how any one can fail to be delighted with No. 7, the head by Velasquez, from its color, still beautiful, and its simple, manly treatment; though not in Velasquez's best style...
