...right, we are at least interested in this tract of the Socialist Club, not because we want to see more socialists, nor because it is a remarkable or flawless bit of argument. We have always held that Harvard men should interest themselves in current problems, and Harvard men certainly know nothing about Socialism as a rule. Our most important reason for considering it, however, is that it seems to us that the danger of the movement lies only in the glamor that surrounds it. If this were removed the blind enthusiasm of the fanatic would fade into nothing...
...great loss to the University Faculty, the death of Professor Sanger may not have peculiar significance to those students who have not been in his courses.

The Eastern republic will soon be, not only the largest but one of the most powerful nations of the world. If America would live at peace with her, America must know her. We must know China...
...composed mainly of men who are seeking culture, who are supposed to have an intelligent respect for, and interest in literature, music and painting. At the same time, there are in the Fogg Museum works of art, which every one of these men would acknowledge to be worth knowing, and understanding. Nevertheless, in spite of this, there is a discouraging neglect of this valuable collection of art. It does not attract men, and they know nothing about it. It is an undoubted fact that the "Meleager" is better known in Berlin than in Cambridge, and it is also undoubtedly true...
