...success in the ratio of the number attending. The greater the number of students who eat there the easier will it be to bring about a better state of things, for there are certain necessary expenses which must go on, be the number great or small. It is obvious that if it can be made a success it will be of the greatest value to the college, and, in view of all the facts, we are inclined to think the college ought to try it again, at least for a time, and so do all in its power to make...

Indeed, it is a question that may well be asked...

A swarm of impertinent small boys daily infests Holmes' field, and besieges any one wishing to play with their importunate cries as long as he is on the ground. This has always been a source of annoyance, and has now grown to be a nuisance which ought to be stopped...
