...because they are unable to refer to articles which bear on the subject in hand. >These bound periodicals are essentially books of reference, and should not be allowed to leave the library except upon the conditions which govern the use of reserved books in the reading-room. It is seldom that anyone desires to read more than one of the fifty or more articles which are contained in a volume, and this could easily be done in an hour. But a man if allowed to keep out a book a month, will be in no hurry to return it even...
...Seldom has a series of lectures been given at Harvard more entertaining or instructive than Professor Cooke's lectures on the "Ice Fields of Switzerland." The effect of the lecturer's remarkable powers of vivid description is heightened by the use of a powerful stereopticon. View after view is projected on the screen, and it is difficult not to feel that one is actually transported to the land of mountains and glaciers. We would remind the students that the lectures begin promptly at seven o'clock, not at half past, as some seem to have got the impression...
...regret that the college does not contribute more generously to our columns. While we are seldom troubled with lack of matter for publication, yet that matter is not of the sort that we would like to see, that we believe our Harvard readers would like to see.

...adopted or rejected according to the disposition of the house. The opposition benches are, as a rule, almost as full as the ministerial seats, causing the rivalry to be very active and the interest unflagging. Meetings are held every Monday evening at 8 o'clock, and the house seldom adjourns before 11 p.m. The attendance is very large, often reaching twenty-five or thirty, while an excellent rule, that three successive absences shall be equivalent to a resignation, insures constant, consecutive attendance. The second year has opened with a membership almost doubled, which is not confined to undergraduate students alone...
...student, passing through his course at either of these New England Academies, unless his choice is previously made, seldom hears a word in favor of Princeton. This, we think, is largely due to the fact that Princeton is not represented among the instructors in these institutions. Comparatively few Princeton men take up teaching as a profession. No system of pedagogics is taught in our college, while in New England the profession of teaching takes its place among the other professions of the day, and is given full consideration by each student as he makes his choice. Besides, previously...
