...papa," he says, "of course nobody would want to belong to the class of nothing at all. Everybody would make fun of a fellow, and he never will feel as if he amounted to anything. If I can't enter college when I'm seventeen, I'd rather wait over a year and go in the class of '97, for then at least I'll be in the class of '01." The father laughs at the boy and teases him, but he says the youngster has taken the matter so seriously to heart that he is not sure whether even...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: - The judgement pronounced by the CRIMSON Wednesday upon the charges against Williams seems to have been rather hasty, even if the facts as stated by Mr. Allen are viewed in the light most unfavorable for Williams.

We question the clearness of Mr. Berenson's answer, but acknowledge the peacefulness of his pen in matters ethical. The paper is strong though somewhat involved...
...moment will largely be required for the publication of observations already make, and for effecting permanent improvements in the condition of the institution which have long been urgently needed. The remounting of the large telescope, and a new Observatory building, are in view, as well as a rather ambitions plan for the extension of astronomical investigation, which contemplates the support of researches conducted at other places by funds administered at Harvard. During the past year the Observatory has lost the services of Prof. Rogers, for a long series of year an indefatigable worker with the meridian circle. As a memorial...
