...What a great opportunity manque was the Harvard Night of the Irving engagement ! Why in the world couldn't the boys have been boys, and given their natural, happy enthusiasm boyish vent ! What an hour it would have been, if when Terry stood there, a radiant vision, kissing her hand in thanks for their applause, they had from all parts of the house showered her with crimson roses, one flung by every boy-Harvard's own colors, breathing in rose-breath Harvard's good will ! - And where was the grand, concentrated Harvard cheer, that should have spoken farewell...

...conscientiously and with as good judgement as possible. In news items we shall still continue to present, as best we can, not only all matters of interest in our own university, but the more important events of other colleges.
