Even if a student should not, on reflection, feel that a practically accurate acquaintance of the rules is a fitting part of every Harvard man's equipment, he must certainly reach that conclusion when he finds that he has been adapting his actions to some false standards. All the regulations relating to discipline, with the exception of occasional additions by the faculty, are embodied in three pages of a pamphlet on "Regulations for Students of Harvard College" which anyone may secure at the college office. This pamphlet is valuable, not only because it contains those regulations which really exist...

There is another abuse, though of quite a different character, about which we have been asked to speak. It is with reference to the crews running upon North avenue. There is a tendency for the men to be careless about ordinary pedestrians, and to come to feel that they themselves have the right of way. There is some reason for this; not a few Cambridge people are so lenient in their admiration for youthful strength and dash, that they do not mind scurrying to one side of the walk, and, in muddy weather, of being generally bespattered. But for every...
