...Society are both facetious and irrelevant. We fail to see what the Aristotelian ???, or a Chinese pick-pocket, or the Royal Asiatic Society has to do with the subject in hand. Nor should our valued cotemporary complain of "athletic tabular views and ornithological ghost-stories," so long as they furnish a text for its widely famed humorous pieces. And when, as a parting thrust, it playfully insinuates that the Crimson is beyond its depth in speaking of matters Shaksperian, it is guilty of a degree of arrogant vanity which we confess we did not anticipate. There is, indeed, little...
...games of the New York Athletic Club on Monday, May 30 next, two days after the Intercollegiate games will furnish an excellent opportunity to our Harvard athletes to try their skill with the best New York amateurs. The Manhattan Club will also hold its annual spring meeting on the same day; and the Orion Rowing and Athletic Association (whose programme is on the bulletin board in the Gymnasium) has chosen the same date for its fifth annual spring meeting, so that with the three there will doubtless be an opportunity offered to all of our representatives to indulge their respective...

It would, of course, be too much to expect every instructor to furnish periodicals at his own expense. But Professor Bartlett's action, let us hope, may suggest to the Corporation the steps by which such pleasant collateral means of study might be added to other departments...
...whole will have more backbone and spirit. It can hardly be denied that they all need, or, at least, could stand, a great deal of improvement, and this we think could be done by adopting what is suggested. The question arises often, whether, after all, the College does not furnish us enough work, and whether the time used in attending to the calls of the many societies could not be better spent in other ways. This change would relieve the burden of work that lies on many, and, at the same time, the work done in monthly meetings would...
