...lawns kills all the grass immediately underneath it and scorches much more for many yards around, so that the evil effects can be seen for months.

...trip, and the college, by the enthusiastic welcome it gave them on their return last evening, showed their full appreciation of the work that had been done. It is most gratifying once again after our tribulations in the past, to see the championship almost within our grasp. Only now let the nine keep on with their present steady game and not become over-confident, that fault which has proved fatal to Harvard's success so often in former years.

...strongly identified with every matation in the fortunes of the Herald, with all its ups down, that, if well-known 'indifference' did not prevent us, we should almost feel tempted to drop atear on its sepulchre. And out of the varying fortunes of the Herald the DAILY CRIMSON comes; Let us hope that in its new guise; the paper may continue the prosperous career it has hitherto...
