...trouble and in less time. The economy of the revised form is of course quite of the subjective sort, for the figures at the right are not materially changed from those of former years. But on the whole we call the new form a decided improvement, and welcome this move in the right direction. Of course, perfection is not yet attained, and the college's conservatism in clinging to the ancient custom of sending around unreceipted bills is as surprising as it is censurable...
...class of 1849. And yet Johns Hopkins is getting all the "national honor" that comes from the publications; and of course she deserves it, as long as she is the only institution that offers such advantages to writers. It is, however, to be regretted that other institutions do not move in the same path. And we wonder that Harvard does not seek after some of this "national fame" which has so deservedly come to Johns Hopkins. If Harvard undertook to publish the meritorious works of her graduates, there can be no doubt that those Harvard men, who have hitherto gone...
...next few months the gymnasium will be crowded, and the use of the apparatus will be desired by a large number of students. We notice that some men, after finishing exercise, rest on the apparatus until they find it agreeable to themselves to move away, being utterly oblivious of the waiting men who wish to use the same apparatus. Undoubtedly mere carelessness causes this neglect of the rights of others; so that we trust that after this reminder, those who have been careless will be careless no more, promptly moving away from apparatus which they have finished using, that others...
...college welcomes the announcement that the freshmen are making a move in the direction of a glee club. Eighty-eight has set at least one good example to her predecessors in initiating a custom of supporting a freshman glee club and we trust that eighty-nine will not be backward in helping to make the custom initiated, a custom established. Freshman glee clubs are sources of profit and pleasure to their classes and to the college; of profit because, as in the case of eighty-nine's glee club, they are able to assist in defraying the expenses...
...league on terms of equality, which, by the way, is out of the question. And so the plan has been broached that a new base-ball league be formed, to include Dartmouth, Amherst, Brown and Williams. We know already that there is a strong sentiment in favor of this move in Dartmouth and Amherst, and have little doubt but it would be well received by Brown also. Such a league would give us plenty of games, and furnish a fair and exciting contest. The colleges would be very evenly matched, and each would be incited to do its best...
