...have clear ideas upon important topics of the times; we might have fewer bookworms and more students; and we might have a larger attendance at University concerts and lectures. Should we not, by such a change, gain in average standing, and would not that "indifference" on the part of those who do not possess extraordinary ability speedily disappear...
...first in the series, we can only add praise to our previous statement. The subject, "The Function of Great Men in Social Evolution," aside from being of general concern and importance in itself, was treated scientifically, and in a way that gave it peculiar interest. Not the least pleasing part was the seeming ease with which Dr. James met and refuted some of the opinions set forth by Herbert Spencer in his Sociology. The Natural History Society is, we repeat, fortunate in having its course of lectures so successfully and brilliantly opened, and we hope that, hereafter, our own professors...

To-night and Saturday matinee, Mr. Warren appears for the last times in his delightful role of Jefferson Scattering Batkins, "the member of the General Court from Cranberry Centre," in the "Silver Spoon." It is, in many respects, his best part; the piece is throughout most amusing. Before it, is given a farce, "Aunt Charlotte's Maid," the beginning of which is good. Saturday evening, Sardou's "Patrie," which has long been talked of, will be produced for the first time. In it, Miss Clarke will appear for the first time...
