...February is hardly up to the average. "The Bell of Merry Wishes" is the best of the articles, and is quite well told. The question of the propriety of the attendance of the ladies of a class at the class-supper has been exciting the Cornell mind of late. The Review thinks that it is all right, and urges them to attend; and the Era, of course, takes the other side.

That something, nevertheless, remains unsaid, is the opinion of thoughtful persons whose attention has been directed to this subject. For while it is a matter for congratulation that poverty, when it can be confessed and proved, need not bar Harvard to a fairly good scholar, it is still to be regretted that necessitous parties, who are unwilling to proclaim their condition, are tempted to seek the cheaper colleges...
