...many reasons, an extension of the plan of the Conference Committee would be desirable. As we said yesterday, the discussions of the present body have an immediate effect only upon its members. It might improve us all, if the whole college would now and then resolve itself into a committee of conference. The frank examination of such a matter as the prayer question by the students and the governing bodies, in common discussion, would be advantageous to both sides. Those in power would see more fully the undergraduate opinion. While we, who do not always refuse to be guided...
...five ounces of strong wine, as sherry; to ten ounces of weak wine, as claret; to one pint of beer. If these quantities are increased one half, 1 1-2 ounces of absolute alcohol will be taken, and the limit of moderation for strong men is reached. The effect on a strong man of taking in 24 hours between one or two ounces of alcohol, is at once injurious, as is proven by evident narcosis, lessening of the appetite, increased rapidity of the action of the heart, dilation of the smaller blood vessels, and the appearance of alcohol...

...This effect can never be obtained from the printed works of an author, familiarity with which often blunts our perception in their most important parts, in reviews for examination. The attention is more painful than pleasant in this kind of "grinding," - while our notes are not only reminders, as remarked above, but statements put in the best shape for our individual minds. For these reasons "printed notes," etc. never give the same results as those of the student himself, and are to be reprehended inasmuch as they offer a loop-hole for the man who is too lazy to take...
