...course no college paper ever must touch upon such minute, even microscopic matter as dust. But until the Senior dormitories lose their dust, stirred only by the infrequent and maladroit ministrations of the femme de chambre or "goodie", a diminutive, hundreds will go forth from Harvard College lined with dust...

...twilights are long here, and after the tents were pitched on the bluff and supper eaten in the cabin, there was light enough to hook--and lose--the first salmon. As it slowly darkened, the nighthawks began to circle above the stream, the deer stole out to drink, and ripples along the faster water began to weave their fantastic patterns of black velvet shot with silver.

Her orders not rescinded, she reported there...

...good team--I don't underestimate their strength a bit, so far this season their record has been distinctly better than ours. But when I heard you yelling here tonight I knew something was going to happen. With a noise like that behind them the boys can't lose."
