SUNDAY night conversation; dramatis personoe, a Theological Student and two Juniors; subject, the existence of angels. 1st Junior: "The Bible endorses the belief in angels; you know the prayer of one of the Apostles, 'Angels and ministers of grace defend us.' " Theological Student: "That is not in the Bible." 2d Junior: "Of course it is n't; it's in the book of Common Prayer, and that is no authority. Universal assent...
...that the experiment will be tried in Holyoke and Matthews next year. It seems to me that this plan would benefit no one, while it would do a great injury to the scouts now employed, who are very honest hard-working men.

We wish to call attention to the manager's statement of finances, which clearly shows the need...
...correspondence column will be found a letter on the subject of substituting janitors in the buildings for scouts. We should not refer to the matter again, were it not for the numerous complaints of it we have heard expressed on all sides, making it our duty to notice it. Many men look beyond the mere inconvenience that they consider will inevitably arise from the change; they regard it as an infringement of their rights, and as such they demur. It looks to them like employing a retainer who will perform the function not only of scout and attendant, but also...
