Investigation with a file led to the estimate that this nickel-iron alloy compares in hardness with the hardest steel used on railroads. An idea of the toughness may be obtained from the fact that it took fully two hours of sawing and more than a dozen hacksaw blades to saw off a piece with...

But it should be remembered that not only those who are inspired by personal advantage but also a far larger number from the rank and, file oppose the plan. These latter have no college fame to preserve by clinging to the old order, nor are they necessarily selfish in their disapproval of the quadrangle plan.
