...disagreeable task to have to-remind men that they have failed to pay subscriptions to the 'Varsity crew. We are convinced that the appeal we print in another column from the treasurer of the boat club will make everybody pay his dues to the crew, and needs no further comment from...
...opportunity. Such selfishness is most unworthy, as every one must admit, and yet if such is the popular opinion, why do men continue the course which they have marked out as right for themselves, but wrong for others? In order that the evil here may be eradicated we appeal to all to remember the privileges of all the students and not their own private desires alone.

The most remarkable piece of writing in this number is, "A Moon Fragment," by Mr. J. B. Fletcher, which will appeal to many though its originality. "Youth," by Mr. Sanford, shows good thought, and much poetical insight. Mr. G. P. Baker contributes a sketch entitled, "An Enthusiast," in his usual easy and pleasant style. An editorial on the formation of a dramatic club and books notices complete an excellent issue...
