...line, Harvard will be as well, if not better, represented in the journalistic field than any college in the country. The Crimson is certainly to be congratulated upon its undertaking, for if there is any thing which shows life and ability, especially in journalism, it is the attempt to push into new fields, even at the risk of attacking others...

In any college town, there is less intemperance among the students than among the townsmen in proportion to numbers. In the words of an esteemed contemporary: "Just think of this a moment; push it to the ultimate, and I think you will have no difficulty in seeing it." "It is a curious fact," however, that men don't seem to see it. Let a student make a jolly night of it, and on his way home levy a loan on a signboard...
