...seems inevitable that some men should always be dishonorable and selfish enough to abuse the library privileges offered by the University. Year after year complaints are heard of the removal of reserved books from their proper place on the shelves; but though the offense is often discovered, the offender himself always seems to escape detection. This is extremely unfortunate. The number of books reserved, especially in some of the larger courses, is necessarily very small in proportion to the number of students who desire to use them. Inconvenience is fairly sure to result at all times, but it is felt...
...Something of this sort is going on, in fact. The U.

There are enough of us who believe that the development of such a national career would be pregnant of calamity for civilization. Men at the student-age are easily swayed by phrases. But I trust that no catch-words or nicknames will deter Harvard students who have once made up their minds adversely...
