...have never had other than the very pleasantest relations with the library authorities, and I do not remember having incurred this year any of the penalties to which I object. The Malden and the Boston Public Libraries inflict fines of only two cents a day, and each has to deal with a much larger and more troublesome class of users than does Gore Hall. You quote me as claiming that the student "should be notified when the time is expiring." Whereabouts in my communication did you find that? The method I suggested involved no more trouble to the librarian than...
...life a feeling of hostility and contempt for all religion. Perhaps it is to be deplored that Harvard's proximity to Boston tends to inculcate in young minds the dilletate spirit which pervades the Athens of America.

Our immortal orator, Henry Clay, once said, 'The noblest task possible to man is to teach the young to be earnest and upright; self-reliant and confident; patriotic and courageous.'

He is one of the best fielders Harvard ever had. He covers a good deal of ground, is sure of a fly, and is an accurate thrower. He also improved very much in batting last year. It is hoped that Nichols, '86, who is now in the Medical school, may play, though as it yet it is undecided...
...welcome to the list of our college magazines "The Philadelphian." This magazine is of a religious character, and destined no doubt to do a great deal of good in its sphere of journalism. The first number of the first volume made its appearance last week. It is very neat and attractive, both in external appearance and in the tone of its contents. The cover has imprinted a cut of Murray Hall, the building of the Philadelphia Society...
