Four courses of free public evening lectures on art are to be given this winter, the aim being to add to the historical treatment of art the finished treatment of professional experts. The lecturers will be Messrs. Edwin H. Blashfield, artist and master of decorative art in its highest sense; Thomas Hastings, of the firm of Carrere and Hastings, architects, who are designers-among other large building-of the hotels at St. Augustine, Florida; F. Hopkinson Smith, a noted illustrator for the magazines, and Professor John C. Van Dyke, the art critic and lecturer, of Rutgers College...
...notice is given in the calendar of the second of Mr. Copeland's Monday evening lectures, and we have but a word to add here. Tonight's lecture will be peculiarly interesting because it will deal with literature of our own day. There is always a tendency, especially in lectures on literature, to turn to the past, for there all is certainty; time has tested the works of the past and only the most interesting and valuable have stood the test. It is very different when a lecturer deals with contemporary work; here there has been no test of time...
...Harvard University of the value and importance of the work of the Harvard Annex must mean everything to the Annex; it must contribute to its success in many ways.

...addition to what is said on the front page about cheering the team today we need add very little editorially. There is a fine spirit in the students this year which is of itself a sufficient guarantee of the size of the crowd which will send off the team. Every element is present to make this send-off the most stirring in the history of our teams, and if every man will lose himself in the sentiment of the parting, the team will be sure to go from us bound...
...that college spirit is fair enough to stand sturdily by an umpire in resolutely ruling out every man who shows himself no gentlemen. Here is the remedy-a general sentiment among players themselves against "slugging" and absolute determination in umpires to rule it out, and, we may add, hearty support of umpires by students. More specifically, much may be done by the three great games this season to put an end to this unfair, unmanly "slugging." These three games, if rightly conducted, can kill it beyond possibility of its reappearance. Here is certainly a chance where all the colleges...
