...house-dog for a comfortable lounge. It was to know the feet that frequent a college entry. The sights and sounds of its new experience had little in common with those of its first fair year, although, perhaps, the unsteady steps that were wont to cross it late o' nights did call to memory the little feet that toddled over it when the baby ran out on the front lawn to pick buttercups...

THERE is a rumor current, that, on his entrance upon office, the new steward of Memorial Hall requested of his predecessor a copy of the bill-of-fare by which, during the late regime, the table had been regulated; a request which the latter refused to comply with, unwilling to give over into the hands of a rival a work which he had been more than two years in perfecting. The students fully support Mr. Farmer in this decision...

...procure for you, you can expect to know ladies whose acquaintance will be not only agreeable, but also useful to you, as you grow to be an older and a greater man. The refining influence of female society is a subject that has been so thoroughly exhausted of late years that I will not bore you by entering upon it.

...wisdom of our action in withdrawing from the Rowing Association of American Colleges was proved conclusively, if any proof was needed, by the course pursued in the late Convention of the Association. Three colleges - Cornell, Columbia, and Princeton - were represented, and the most important action taken was a resolution to row hereafter in four-oared instead of six-oared shells. The fear that this backward step would be taken was one of our strongest reasons for leaving the Association, and now we see that our apprehension was no idle fancy. We shall have next summer three separate intercollegiate contests...

...regret to hear that Harvard has been beaten by Yale in the late foot-ball match. The score shows that Harvard had really the best of the match, as she obtained three touch-downs, while Yale secured one goal; but, whatever the match shows, still it is nominally a defeat for Harvard. It is said that Seamans missed a place-kick for the first time during a match. We hope that Harvard will soon regain her laurels; indeed, we are magnanimous enough to wish that no club may ever beat her, except our own, or some other Canadian team...
