...EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON.- Several years ago the professor was in the habit of visiting our family quite frequently, so that I often came in contact with him. There were a few of the professors at whose homes he was always welcome and he regularly, at that time, dined with us on Sundays. He would breakfast and dine early with others, but at 6 o'clock he would appear at our house for his second Sunday dinner. In the evenings when worked up he was fond of relating how the Turks decapitated condemned prisoners. Standing in the middle of the room...
OBSERVER.EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON:- In your issue of Tuesday, you publish an article entitled "American vs. English Tennis" on which I should like to make three observations. In particular I would refer to the following sentences.

This fact, however, is aggravated by the carelessness or thoughtlessness of some students, who either leave the books they consult on the tables or-what is worse put them on a wrong shelf. Hence other men finding empty spaces where they expected to find books conclude that the reference books are in use. Greater...
...EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON.-There is no part of the half-year in which we are all so busy as the last few days before the semi-annuals, unless it is while they are actually going on. I, therefore, learn with surprise that the fourth junior theme will be due only two days before the first examination. Only one thing could show more disregard for our convenience, and that would be to call for the fifth theme in the midst of the examinations. As this seems likely to be done we can only hope that it will not be done...
