...last race with her. We think that in this matter the general sentiment of Harvard is as follows : Yale is, above all other colleges, the one with which we wish to row, and in order to secure a race with her, we would be willing to do everything and submit to everything that gentlemen could be expected to do or to submit to; but Yale has now entirely overstepped the bounds of propriety and decency, and so long as she occupies her present position, a race with her is, to Harvard, an impossibility. For the disgraceful remarks...

...idea in his head that he knows all about the business, he subjects himself to the same rebuffs as would meet him if he entered a dry-goods house with a like notion. But if he is willing to learn with patience the technicalities, and is willing to submit to those more experienced than himself, he will find that a college education will greatly aid him to rise in a profession whose heights must be gained by climbing, and whose approaches are often guarded by unlettered men who act with the true spirit of the dog in the manger...

...same time these secret organizations have a certain amount of power; and as long as they do not interfere with you, you had better not interfere with them, - technical interference being the public mention of their existence. If they openly offend you, of course you must not calmly submit; but my experience of them is that they do not often attack unless they are attacked.

...cases out of a hundred, to pay the money. He is not pleased, however, to be asked to pay it, and does not himself consider, nor do others generally consider, that he has done anything very much out of the way if his subscription is never paid. This, we submit, is not as it should be. A promise to pay is a promise that no man ought to break and still keep the respect either of himself or others. Once out of college, every one, no matter how dull of comprehension, will become convinced that he must pay what...
