...will cease. A letter from one of the leading ministers of England states that "women are inferior to men and consequently their sphere is different," with other statements of the same sort which are by no means arguments that women ought not to receive the same privileges for a certain amount of study as men. This opposition to the education of women is worthy of more early times, and certainly reflects little credit on a century that prides itself on liberality of thought and education. Much as has been said about the evil consequences which will arise from the higher...

This whole idea is a new one and to a certain extent a possible one, but that it could ever become firmly fixed enough to radically change the method of housing students where large bodies of them are gathered together, hardly seems probable. And we fear that for a good many years to come, students will be forced to live in dormitories and boarding houses, and undergo the trials and tribulations of their forefathers...

The present board has been so strongly identified with every matation in the fortunes of the Herald, with all its ups down, that, if well-known 'indifference' did not prevent us, we should almost feel tempted to drop atear on its sepulchre.

...will be seen in a communication sent to us by the secretary of the Cooperative Society, a certain student, not a member of the society, has been found guilty of using a member's ticket in order to purchase goods at the society's store. Of course, such an offence is nothing more nor less than deliberate fraud, and fraud, too, against the offender's own fellow students. However, such a case, from necessity, must be so rare an occurrence among those who profess to be gentlemen, that we but briefly call attention to it, before dismissing it from mind...
