...finished, many of the books have been moved to the new part, and already the Librarian is considering certain plans for the comfort and profit of students using the Library. It is proposed to enlarge the reading-room, to give students free access to more books, and to open the Library in the evening.

...come here, are really fine fellows. As a rule, it is the best parents who send their sons to college, and it is their best sons that they send. Such sons will be more likely to do good than harm. I don't think that Cambridge ought to throw open her houses and say, 'Come in, all you students, and be one of the family'; but I do think she might treat these fellows as kindly as, for instance, you'd like to have your family treated if you should move into a strange place. Now when that polite young...
