...resolutions, but, unfortunately, few carry them out, and as these few would learn equally much whether the elective were conducted in one way or another, it seems to me that it should be so conducted as to give the greatest advantage possible to the men who make up the larger part of the elective...
...doubled usefulness of the small boy - we beg pardon, the page - at the Library suggests a larger sphere for his brother at the Secretary's office. It is a well-known fact that censure-marks and the like can be removed by depositing in the Dean's box a suitable petition; and yet this simple remedy is seldem adopted.
