...well enough for some purposes. You see, the girl was struck with me, and wanted to flirt. Said she mistook me for a friend, - way they always do, you know, - but gad! she was cut up badly when she found I knew you, and so she stuck to it that she could n't tell us apart...
SEVERAL of our professors have entertained parties of students during the past year, and we hope that they feel well enough satisfied with the experiment to make it a custom in future. The number of students who have been favored is comparatively small; but such social advantages would be valuable to all students, especially to those who do not have access to Cambridge society. Many Harvard men have no friends in the neighborhood of Boston, and are thus deprived of society at a time when it would be of the greatest benefit to them. There are many, also...

He should be a good man and an accomplished gymnast, to teach the proper way of executing the prescribed exercises, see that no one undertakes rash feats, and with tact and presence of mind enough to apply immediate remedies in case of accident. He should be competent to teach sparring, fencing, and wrestling, in classes as well as by private lessons, and be an intelligent gentleman, able and ready to carry out the directions of his superior officer, and one with whom the students might...
