...since that earliest cave dweller, feeling the pangs of creation within him, scratched upon the bones of one animal the sensuous visage of another, have the children of dream gone unchallenged by many. Is it that after the lucid history of centuries the reason, the merit, the meaning, the value of art is still doubtful? Remembering Greece, and Athens that should make Rome vital, and Byzantium that should trumpet Italy out of stupid darkness, and the Latin Renaissance that should succour Europe even to the present moment, can any pen deny those who would look upon football as a momentary...
Could anything be more pitiful or pertinent than the plea of the benumbed Yard-dweller for more heat, that the CRIMSON prints today. Surely partial refrigeration is not an attribute of Seniority. Surely a congealed cerebrum conduces not to mental activity. To awake, frozen to death, is one of the most annoying experiences an undergraduate can encounter. To find one's ink in a state of conglaciation is even more disconcerting...
When it became my good fortune, some thirty years ago, to become once more a dweller in my native town of Cambridge, I naturally looked about with interest for pleasant acquaintances among the College professors and was fortunate enough to find myself for a time at least, a near neighbor of Professor Shaler.

The rude Scythian shepherd of Marlowe, brooding upon the unattainable, has grown "very weary" of his life,' and meditates upon the theme of vanity with the unction of a Stephen Phillips. And his rough soldiers as they march, sing with Shellevan opulence of fancy...
...where the name of the College is at stake, even in the least degree, the BEST in the College should defend it. The name Harvard Freshman involves the name of the College to some extent, and often to outsiders to the full extent. Objection 3 admits that "the rustic dweller on the shores of Owasco Lake, or the respected citizen of Knox County, N. Y., may have taken the Freshman for the University Crew;" if, on the ground of the race, that opinion prevailed, there is every reason to suppose that the further off one got, - especially...
