...first number of volume thirteen of the "Lampoon" came out Friday. The present seems a fitting occasion upon which to extend congratulations to our sister journal. The "Lampoon" has had a hard task before it during the years of its existence, but has withstood all storms manfully, and now has a secure place among the college papers. We believe that the way in which "Lampy" shows his disapproval of certain acts on the part of our authorities is well adapted to the lessening of such acts, for the irony of the jester - whose person always is held sacred - does more...
...leading editorial in to-day's "Advocate" is well written and the several points of which it treats are well taken. We wish to sustain our sister paper in the opinions expressed.

Defeat taught the vanquished the necessity of discipline. The Williams College nine was under the care of two professional trainers for several weeks before the match at Worcester, and the powerful batting of the Lowell nine was the result of faithful attendance at the gymnasium last winter. Success on the other hand blinded the Harvard nine to the necessity...
...feeling towards all innovators, - and Harvard has certainly introduced many innovations of late years into her collegiate life. Therefore, while deprecating such a feeling toward us, we should like to point at one as a possible danger to our friends who hold the reins of authority at our sister college. We hope that they will examine most thoroughly the changes which have been made with us and will profit, we speak with all modesty, by the victories which we have...
