...Senior Class met in Upper Massachusetts Hall last Wednesday night for the purpose of electing officers for their Class Day, June 19, 1874. The meeting was the largest ever held by the class, 146 members being present, and was opened by the election of Mr. Richmond as Chairman and Messrs. Merwin, Elwood, and F. J. Stone as Secretaries. The election of officers began with the choice of Orator, and Mr. R. H. Dana, being the only candidate, was elected by acclamation. For Poet the candidates were Messrs. Mackintosh and Fenollosa.

...falls into that cynicism of the nobler sort, - possible only in a generous disposition, - which despises not men, but only what is mean and false in men.

...difficult task to give a sufficient amount of interesting matter without descending to gossip and personalities, which we know our readers do not wish in a college paper, and which we ourselves are loath to introduce. Our desire to establish friendly relations with our sister paper has been met in so courteous a manner by the Editors of the Advocate that we feel sure that the present state of feeling will long continue. Should any change of policy, in this regard, be effected at some future time, both journals will surely feel the contempt of the whole college world. Once...
