...have received a communication which we are unable to print because of its length, urging that Dane Hall be redeemed from its present uses and altered to suit the needs of a university club. The writer considers the formation of such a club extremely desirable, both because many students are necessarily debarred from admittance to the more important secret societies, and because many of those who are fortunate enough to become members of them are obliged to go to heavy expense in the way of fees and assessments. This plan for a university club is by no means...
...print in full the prayer petition from the O. K. Society. We print it because it is a matter in which every undergraduate is, or ought to be deeply interested. Moreover, this document is the fullest and ablest presentation of the question which has yet appeared in any college paper. Doubtless many will object to some of the views set forth. But no statement has been made in the petition which has not been carefully considered by those who have tried to think clearly and conscientiously on the topic; no stand has been taken without being thoroughly discussed. Accordingly...
Though the extract from the Boston Transcript which we print on another page may be somewhat overdrawn, yet it cannot be denied that it contains a pretty accurate portrait of many a character to be met in college society.

But, after all, if all possessors of a degree cannot be profound, it is much better that some of them should be only "clever," rather than that the ranks of our alumni should...
Last fall the "Monthly" was started for the purpose of printing the "strongest and soberest undergraduate thought." Its articles are longer than the "Advocate's;" and while not neglecting good stories and verse, it gives more attention to essays and reviews. It is a very natural outcome of our work here. We indeed try to think steadily and gravely, and we need some magazines to publish the longer and soberer articles which are the result of such thought. Such pieces the "Advocate" often cannot print...
...letter from Yale, published in a New York paper, contains a very able contradiction of the general belief that college life is degenerating into a life of athletics, impiety, and social dissipation. The same paper had previously printed a disparaging account of Yale's endeavors to get a new gymnasium and to have an earlier chapel hour, of her holding class Germans, of her crew's having a trainer, of her indulging in chess clubs, and of her having a Glee Club that was to give a concert. We do not ourselves see, in any one of the matters above...
