...Convention, with its two-thirds requirement, one third? 365 delegates?can impose a veto on the aspirations of any candidate. McAdoo is likely to control this type of veto against the Smith-Underwood group. The Smith-Underwood group is not unlikely to have a similar stop on McAdoo. The logic of the situation calls loudly for a dark horse, especially since most of the delegates have second choices...

And just a pitiful would be the counter suggestion that the fault of the grammar schools lies in political school boards and underpaid teachers; or that a little logic and a little disagreeable work is very "good for the soul." No, small Cousin Biliee must henceforth be allowed to vent his creative impulse on the fly leaf of a first edition "Ulysses", and improve the hitherto uncolored wood-cuts in a calf-skin Hegarth.

And it is clear that these are the only methods which can ever bring results...
Although recent graduates who escaped the deluge of divisionals, and present seniors who count upon a timely departure before other requirements enhance the difficulties of acquiring a degree, unite in giving thanks for these blessings, the logic of higher standards has recently been expounded by President Lowell with characteristic clearness. The whole structure of education being, apparently, very much like the House that Jack built, it is unlikely that any radical change can be made in any one institution without influencing in some degree, all of the other institutions,--and most especially those which make a business of preparing...
