...Here is a showing especially annoying in the absence of great dispute that Harvard affords the widest and most thorough opportunities for students in America. Fair minded people, I think, do not hesitate to accept the idea that Harvard has more educational advantages than Yale to offer, although they may question whether the student is as much pressed into accepting them. Her faculty, system of instruction, library, and tone of surrounding give her an unequalled and always increasing educational value, and no person would pass her by as insufficient in an academic aspect.

...played in New York; at the same time there are very serious objections to the plan. The question is a hard one to decide, and doubtless many men will question whether the Athletic Committee has taken the right step in the matter. We urge all men in thinking the subject over, to remember that the Committee is made up of men who have the best interests of our athletics at heart, and who can see phases of the question which are not evident to everyone.

The number of men who have been aware of the existence of this rule has been comparatively small and in some cases disobedience has been entirely unintentional. There has been a number of other cases in which...
...number as a whole, however, is not as interesting to the general reader as some of its predecessors. The work and thought of the essayist is given prominence almost to the exclusion of the writers of fiction. We have little fault to find with the matter presented but we think that if something in a lighter vein had been introduced among the sober products of the essayist the magazine would have been improved...
