...Enterprise as he has run it for the last two years. "The paper," wrote Richards last week in an article set in the newspaper's archaic, Gay Nineties type, "will continue to violate every accepted rule of journalism." But Tell has some ideas of his own, plans to expand East. The paper already sells more than 2,000 weekly copies east of the Mississippi, mostly to New Yorkers who remember Beebe from his days as a café society columnist for the New York Herald Tribune...
Mandarin in the Marshes. But the Annamese warriors were no match for the French, who arrived in the mid-19th century to cut roads and rail lines through the jungle, introduce rubber and expand the rice area for the profit of Paris. But the conquerors were not suffered docilely.

Then he borrowed to buy up other companies, moved into highway construction, dam building, land development and heavy construction by using his growing combines as collateral against each new acquisition. Gradually his original...
...House system might even provide a partial solution for the many emotional problems of the Radcliffe girl. Not only would she have the "place to cry" many have wished for, she would have an increased chance to expand her interests beyond herself. A variety of opportunities which were formerly labelled "Harvard only" would open before her in the House-oriented activities. As her specifically "intellectual" endeavors became intermingled more thoroughly in her daily routine, the frightening gap between education and life might narrow a little. The resident families would provide her with encouraging examples of professional women who are also...
