...universally admitted that "government without the consent of the governed" is no longer practical in an enlightened community; and in a democracy universal suffrage is the result of the conviction that the interests of every citizen should be equally represented in government.

...movement started last year to give more men a chance to play football is sure to be a failure unless greater interest is shown at once. Thus far, barely enough candidates have appeared to make up one team. This seems disgraceful in view of the fact that there are at least five hundred eligible men in the University who are not at this season actively engaged in any other form of sport...

Last year there were three teams which played a series of fifteen games...

Parents as well as students will find the article instructive as it brings out the interdependence of the one on the other...
...quarters of the Institute of Technology are of special interest at this time because of the recent plan for co-operation with the University, which will go into effect next September. At that time the Harvard Graduate School of Applied Science will be merged with the engineering department of the Institute, and the enlarged Faculty of Engineering, appointed and salaried jointly by the University and by Technology, will offer courses which will count toward a degree in either or both institutions. Students under that Faculty will have all privileges of Harvard, and all those afforded by Technology...
