...they do not have a chronic appearance of being forced out at the imminent risk of the sanity of their originators. But even the Lampoon sometimes dribbles. But as for the Advocate and Crimson, (it will do no harm to speak plainly, for I am sure they both will resent no well-meant criticism) for the last three months almost everything that has appeared in their columns, excepting their editorials (generally excellently written) and their venerable items, has been sheer nonsense; and nonsense that is not in the least amusing or laughable either, but nonsense of the most painful...
Here the meeting was disturbed by a violent dispute between Doctor B-rt-l and Joseph C-k about the economy of protoplasm. Joseph proposed an interlude in the yard, where, being a large man, he would agree to wipe out B-rt-l- The Club were disposed to resent this speech; but a very learned man, H-xley by name, interposed, saying that the discussion would amuse Joseph and keep him out of mischief, and that if B-rt-l could stand it the rest of them could...

We are surprised that the editors of the Advocate should have published a production which has given just offence...
...Crimson's account of the meeting of the Harvard Boat-Club we gather that the feeling at Harvard is that last summer "the first race was good discipline for the second," and that "the Yale race should be kept independent of all others." Some may be inclined to resent these expressions as showing a spirit of loftiness and condescension on Harvard's part. We trust, however, that no such feeling will arise. It is natural and right that Harvard should particularly wish to defeat Yale, and that she should make other things subservient to that wish. Any one who studies...
