EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - I learn from the CRIMSON and other sources that the gymnasium authorities are busy putting new lockers in order to satisfy the ever-increasing want. All this time there are a great many lockers on the upper floor, and these are, as everyone knows, the most desirable lockers, which have been lying vacant ever since the beginning of the term. They have been bespoken by members of the university, and will undoubtedly be paid for, so that the management of the gymnasium cannot be blamed for the present state of things. The proprietors of these lockers...
...learn that a certain sophomore has been engaging certain rooms in a certain dormitory for use next class-day. We say a "certain sophomore" and a "certain dormitory," although we are quite able to name them both. It is a matter of surprise that any holders of college rooms would consent to give their rooms up for class-day to any persons not members of the senior class, and it is a matter of surprise, that becomes indignation, that any man can have the chic to ask for rooms. We have supposed that all the men in college knew well...
...rich treat in the way of lectures, concerts and readings is in store for the students of this university. We learn from the Bursar that Sever 11 is engaged every evening with only one or two exceptions from now until the Christmas recess.

It was a masterly presentation of the beginnings of the history of the gold bearing state, and the lecturer did not allow the attention of his audience to flag once. Dr. Royce is admirably...
...history we may learn at least three lessons: First, history teaches us the sole secret of moral power. By faith St. Paul, St. Anthony, Gregory VII, and Luther shook the world. Secondly, history teaches us that the work of the world's heroes is never permanent in its results. The oil in a lamp, if it is always to burn, must often be replenished. If a work pauses, degradation ensues. Christianity as a human philosophy is lacking. Only as a divine message, as a living energy, can it be complete and truly successful. Thirdly, history teaches that the failures...
...nothing but censure such an exhibition of mean spirit. Would the college have scored its brilliant victories of last year if the students had argued from past defeats that the championship in base-ball, in rowing, and in lacrosse could not be brought back to Cambridge? The freshmen must learn without further delay, that the burden of team and crew expenses must be borne by all. Each man must do what he can, be it little or much. We cannot believe that it is left for eighty-nine to introduce in our midst a spirit of selfishness heretofore unknown...
