...yesterday afternoon consisted of close-order work, practice in the giving of commands, and special instruction in the grenade and the automatic rifle. The first two platoons used the baseball cage, and had a short session of grenade-throwing under the direction of Captain F. Parkman, who explained the method of throwing the bombs. Lieutenant R. S. Lovering demonstrated the use of the French automatic rifle to the third and fourth platoons, whose work was somewhat hampered by the lack of space in the Municipal Drill Hall...
...make this dance a success will mean co-operation from every Junior. The old method of giving carpenters full sway in the Union for two or three days must be abolished now that the Union is taking Memorial's place as a dining-hall. There will be but little chance for decorations unless the men who normally eat in the Union volunteer to leave for the terrors of a Jimmie's bread-line. Something radical must be done because it is impossible to have a dance in a place which has acquired the gentle aroma of a Holt's Cafeteria...
...splendid prophecy that the war will free us from this thralldom.

Only a small minority of the students, however, can be reached by this method, and the Cambridge Committee on the Halifax Relief is anxious that men who can give shall go in person to one of the undergraduates in charge of the collection. The following are the names and addresses of the four men: E. J. Brehaut '17, Stoughton 8; J. H. Peters...
...Colorado Claro, and these he did not use sparingly. But think of the utter chaos which would result from Phillips Brooks lighting a cheroot in Phillips Brooks House in the year 1917. No mild reproval or honey-worded request would be tendered him. Forcible ejection would be the only method of treatment. Tobacco is now taboo in Phillips Brooks, and it would be so even in the case of the Bishop. Time doth work many marvellous changes indeed...
