...faculty and students, while they will be found wholly inadequate to remedy evils here existing in reality far from their source. We are loth to believe that a want of gentlemanliness is so far encouraged at Harvard that the poorer students are compelled by the force of public opinion either to incur expenses beyond their means, or to lose caste among their fellows. It is necessary to the welfare of the university that young men of few resources can here gain an education, and any reasonable improvements, which shall prove efficient, toward such an end will, we are certain...

...fledged sophomores to serve notices upon the budding freshmen, or otherwise violently communicate with them, to the effect that on this eventful evening free drinks should be standing ready for the august members of the sophomore class at which symposium the freshman hosts should prepare themselves for either use or entertainment.

When so many claims...

...ROGERS, Capt.SENIOR CLASS. The last two rehearsals of the Class Song will be held tonight and to-morrow at 7.15 in Boylston Hall. Not more than twenty-five men attended either of the first two. The chorister earnestly wishes that a larger number may be present at the remaining rehearsals. To be sure the song may be considered rather a minor feature, vet if it deserves a place on the programme at all, it deserves to be done well.
