...what the College wants is a full statement of where every cent of the money subscribed has gone; and this we have a right to expect. While we have no word of complaint to utter against a single club, we think it eminently just that every treasurer should keep, for the benefit of those who help to support that club, a careful account of every expenditure, and that such accounts should from time to time be made public. If the expenditures are found to be necessary (as it is presumed they will be found), students will subscribe much more readily...
...Library is now in a particularly flourishing condition. The ball has been set rolling, and all that is necessary is to keep it in motion. The Librarian will have to turn his attention to systematizing, classifying, and arranging the books as they pour in, rather than to soliciting additions, as was the custom of yore.

...would not detain the alumni longer, and certainly would not detain the government of his country longer. He felt, too, that they cared little to hear him often, as they had approved of his appointment to a foreign mission which would necessarily keep him away for a long time. He was reminded, too, of something which he had read in his diplomatic instructions, and it was fortunate that he had not thought of it a moment sooner, and that was, that all persons in a diplomatic capacity are strictly prohibited from speech-making. They are allowed, indeed, to make...
...attention to the needs of each man, his deep study of methods of rowing, won for him the entire confidence of the crew, and it was his confidence, together with his nerve and coolness, which enabled him to take the race into his own hands at the start and keep it there until the finish. The effect that our victory ought to, and will, have is an increased interest in boating at Harvard, and the success of this year will be but a stronger incentive to work for a like success next year, when we may be sure that Yale...
