...with their usual "Harvard Indifference" from all outside appearances. The flag on the Cambridge liberty pole and a few remarks in the newspapers are all that remind them that the day is a legal holiday. One year we did have some celebrations. In '83 there was a display in the yard of several patent fire escapes. whereby several ankles were sprained, one arm broken, and doubtless no end of bruises received. In the same year also many students witnessed two exciting dogfights in the Quadrangle. In '84 there was no such public celebration. May we hope that 1885 will...

...intention of certain Harvard Independents and Democrats to carry transparencies supporting their candidate in the procession of Oct. 30.

...incoming classes. It is almost appalling to attempt the task of estimating the number of mathematics conditions which have, like a cloud before the sun, obscured the prospect of a degree to many of our fellow students. But all this, be it thankfully said, is changed now we must display a knowledge of analytics sufficient to gain a paltry forty percent. Algebra and trigonometry are things of the past now, and like all other relics of antiquity may be forgotten as speedily as possible.
