...degree was a bad one and every one was glad to see it broken. It is our earnest conviction that the custom should remain a thing of the past and should never again be regenerated. If Mr. Robinson should show by any of his acts that he has any particular claim upon the degree aside from the fact that he is governor of the state of Masschusetts, let him receive it, but let the degree be conferred upon the man and not upon the office. We have been relieved from a disagreeable state of affairs by the action...
...tried to trip up Sykes, who instantly collared, floored, and put his foot on the rebel, and kept it there, until Bill promised to abide by the rules of the school in general, and to submit to the application of the big flat ruler of the teacher in particular. But when the latter went for this instrument of authority, Bill went for the window, out of which he had got his head and shoulders, when down came the sash on his back, and held him fast.

EDITORS OF THE HERALD-CRIMSON : Nearly every one is at times subjected to considerable delay in finding where certain rooms are in our college buildings on account of the darkness of the entries and ignorance of their exact location. This is particularly true of visitors, who are frequently compelled to wander all over a building and go to considerable trouble before finding the particular room they are in search of. Now it seems to me to be a perfectly practicable scheme for the men on each floor to contribute a small sum apiece and have a plan of the floor...
