...Local Column." What a strong argument for co-education these considerations suggest! Supposing college journalism worth encouragement, we can hardly find a better way of encouraging it than by admitting women to the colleges. Under co-education, a college editorship meets with comfort and ease, and has a far wider field for the development of that genius, which the college editor never lacks. And what if the fair co-eds are eligible to positions on the papers! We, in the east, can hardly conceive how intense the competition for positions on western journals must be. It is immense, and immense...
...whom we refer, it must be said that there is no deliberate intention of circumventing the Co-op. In all the cases that have come to our notice, the men belonged to the society last year, but have not renewed their subscriptions. The year is now so far advanced that these men can no longer plead forgetfulness as an excuse.

Its inventor (who is a German) has recognized that no existing language could serve the purpose of universality, and has accordingly devised a new tongue which shall suit the mouths of all men English is acknowledged to be the dominant principle; but how far its modification is necessary may be seen from the following verse of St. Matthew, ii, 3: Et quando ils partitefer schire, to angelo deode apparifer Fosephobi in una trauma, sagano: Arisire, takare ton jungon childon et tom matren et fliehre in Egypta et ere ibfa quoad mi bringar tubi wordas, car Herodes...

But setting them aside and taking up the "Harvard Monthly" we are inclined to think that the name "literary" would be far more applicable to it than to any of its contemporaries. But strange to say, the apparently proper order of things is exactly reversed, and while all the other publications are called "literary," the Harvard publication is not so called. Of course names are of little importance. Still, that the chief...
...papers embracing representative dailies of Boston, New York, Chicago, St. Louis, California and other places; the New York weeklies; the London Times and Pall Mall Gazette, and all the leading college exchanges will be placed on file. The reading-room management has shown enterprise in their undertaking thus far. This enterprise is conspicuous in the determination to have the reading-room open from 6.30 to 8.30 in the evening. Would that their energy were contagious, and the library authorities were exposed to it! The room will be opened at 9 o'clock every morning. From that hour, with a brief...
