...regard to the binder showed. The communication to-day speaks of their being left on the tables in the reading room. While we certainly condemn this habit of not returning them to their proper places after using them, on the other hand we think that those who fail to find books at the first touch, should show a little mercy in looking for them before rushing into print with complaints and unjust accusations...
...erection of a slide. Cambridge has a magnificient newly erected toboggan slide; Brookline nightly draws from our number of student tobogganers. But this is all outside of the college. No, skating and tobogganing are not among our traditional list of college sports, so of course cannot possibly find their way into that list. New England exclusiveness must prevail here also...

Superficial knowledge, however, is far better, in many cases, than no knowledge...

There are undoubtedly twenty men in either class qualified to fill these places, and we want to know them all, or at least know where to find them. Again, it is our honored custom to elect a freshman editor at the beginning of the second volume, immediately after the mid years. The contributions from '90 have thus far been many and varied; but we hope to have better things yet. When shall we have the pleasure...
