...fact of his temporary absence. Mr. Baxter not only was interested in his work, but he was able to interest others in it; his absence is certainly not needed to make us recognize his value, and we trust that his health will soon permit him to resume his work among us. Meanwhile the College has been fortunate in securing the services of Mr. George Riddle to fill Professor Baxter's place...

The managers have done everything in their power to make the dances attractive, and praise is due them for their efforts. The difficulty, however, seems to lie in a mistaken idea prevalent among dancing men, that if they invite partners for the German, bouquets are de rigueur, and the inconvenience of sending flowers oftentimes, no doubt, deters men from asking ladies to the assemblies. It is our desire to correct this impression as far as we can, using as our authority the assurance...
