...have received a copy of "Progress and Poverty," by Henry George, published in the Lovell's Library Series. For all students in Political Economy this book is full of interest, and the edition mentioned, printed as it is in large, clear type, and being of the ordinary convenient book size, is far superior to the other cheap "libraries."

...turn them out of the premises at once. The men are impostors and their wares fraudulent. A visit was paid to the Law School a day or two ago by the fellows, but they were remembered from last year and men were on their guard.

Under these circumstances it is the clear duty of every man in the class who is of suitable physique, and can spare the time, to offer his services to the captain. Eighty-three began her boating career with a victory, and we believe that it is in her power to end it with one, provided she shows that determination...
