...which the cats may be gotten rid of, however, and Captain Brennan said that he was also at a loss to think of a plan of action that might be employed in the war on the felines. He suggested that he might call for volunteers among his men to form a "bean blower squad" and detail them to slink around the alleys and yards of the terrace and inflict their ammunition upon the molesting chorus. The only objection to this method is that it will not make for the permanent removal of the feline songsters from Cambridge. Captain Brennan however...

...structure, which will be built in the form of a crescent, will be removed at the close of the football season, according to Mr. Bingham. It may be found necessary to move the Carey Building, the old cage which is still in use, but this building is too valuable to Harvard athletes to be disposed of entirely...

...worded resolution, perhaps because it was edited by Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, one of the authors of the Federal Reserve Act (1913). Not mild, however, was the accompanying speech by ponderous Senator Heflin of Alabama. Wall Street, he bellowed, was the hotbed and breeding place of the worst form of gambling that ever cursed the country.

...become an ample idler; he took pictures, thousands of them. He had always believed that photography was a medium of art which could be as sensitive, as interpretative as painting, etching or engraving. Out of the confused mass of forms in the visible world he selected serene or startling shapes and contours, the tense grace of sewing fingers, the slopes and rotundities of the nude.
