...Republic, which cannot, in my opinion, afford to lose the substantial, if intangible, benefits the nation has derived from its colleges. Surely the college can give freedom of thought, a breadth of outlook, a training for citizenship, which neither the secondary nor the professional school in this country can equal...
...class fund is to equal the funds of previous classes, or in any way to serve the needs of the class, pledges and contributions to the fund must be received by the treasurer in greater numbers than during the past few weeks.

A complicated tie for the other points is likely to result between Harwood, Pope and Lawrence of Harvard, Canfield and Reiley of Yale, Rossman of Cornell, Horrax of Williams, and Lane of Pennsylvania...
