...favorite of one poet, it is because he has something to say or, at least, says nothing in an attractive manner; if it disregards another, we may find the reason in some defect which for the time or forever condemns him to oblivion. If Mr. Jones had but little joy in his life we can but grieve for him. It will not lighten his pain, now that he is dead, if his volume be thumbed ever so eagerly. But Mr. Perry makes no attempt to screen his new god's defects, and in the end he leaves us to judge...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: The first Cambridge Harvard-Yale game has peen played, and we may be pretty proud of our nine's hard earned victory. It is most proper that our joy should find expression by means of bon-fires, fireworks, and horns if necessary. Let us hope, however, there will never occur again such an unorganized celebration as was witnessed night before last.

It was no use; '90 had three and a half inches when time was called. The joy of the freshmen knew no bounds. They rushed in and carried their team off with uproarious joy. Beware, '90, you may strike a snag...
...glad to see the new bulletin boards in Hollis and Stoughton - yes, and one in each entry even. Not that such a trivial matter as the existence of four bulletin boards, more or less, would cause such great joy to our hearts; but this change for the better is an omen, a presage of future improvements. For where little things do not escape the eye, there we may be sure that the big things are not neglected. When we see such a slight evil as the lack of bulletin boards in two buildings remedied, what shall not our hopes...
