Harvard seems to be fairly launched in her career in lacrosse. It is now important that this should be made a successful one. Whatever students undertake in the name of Harvard, must be done well for the sake of the name, if for no other reason. In the case of lacrosse, however, there is much in the game itself which entitles it to a prosperous continuance. It has all the characteristics which are necessary to make an athletic sport stay permanently in favor; it offers an opportunity for vigorous exercise to a class of men who without it would find...

Assistant Professor Warren may usually be found at the Architectural Building on Jarvis street on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, between 10 and 12 a.m., and from...
...large part of its commendation has been bestowed upon Mr. Robson's brilliant impersonation of the role "Bertie, the Lamb." Every one will welcome back Mr. Robson, and especially in "The Henrietta." Custom does not stale this brilliant play, and it bids fair to go on in its prosperous career until the copyright expires, and it shall take its place among the masterpieces of American literature.
