...seems necessary to say a few words in regard to the communication which we published in yesterday's is sue concerning 'Darwin and the Origin of Species." After inquiring carefully into the matter, we find the following to be the facts of the case. One of our professors who is thoroughly acquainted with his subject, made some statements in regard to Darwin and his theory, which, in the hurry of note-taking, were misinterpreted by our first correspondent. These mistakes were printed in our first article, where upon our second correspondent, who, it would seem, is conversant in scientific affairs...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: Is there not some way by which the number of newsboys at Memorial Hall in the evening can be reduced? It certainly does not seem necessary that there should be so many of them.

Our people would almost seem to believe that our universities had reached their greatest height and the only thing left...
...that our students have done so little, while our professors have done so much, for the school. The example of the students of the University of Pennsylvania should rouse us to do something. A Greek play, perhaps, is not to be thought of. Our genius at present does not seem to be of the Hellenic or histrionic kind Among us, as elsewhere, music is the dominant art. It has been suggested that the Glee Club and Pierian Sodality give a concert in aid of the school." Now that this suggestion has been practically taken up and acted upon, the students...
