COMPLAINTS have come to us concerning the action of the Bursar in regard to the transfer of rooms. The old transfer is a thing of the past, and it has been said that if one man wants to give up a room which another is anxious to get, it is impossible for the thing to be done. He who first drew the room, it is said, must hold it, no matter how many homeless wretches may long to rest their limbs within. We have examined the matter and find that the case is not quite as bad as this...
...subject in which a majority of undergraduates felt an interest. However excellent a thing Persian poetry may be in itself, it is not the prevailing topic of conversation in Cambridge. Apart from the discussion of Persian poetry the questions which this controversy has raised are questions of opinion in regard to the relative merits of Mr. Emerson's earlier and later works.

There is no reason why she should do her work as long as she is paid for not doing it. The fault lies not so much in the goody as in the system...
...Britain, the war with Rome, and his death in the last battle with the traitor, Sir Modred. This work was afterwards versified, and was much amplified and adorned. Sir Thomas Malory devotes most of his book to Merlin, Lancelot, the Sangreal, and Guinevere. The two histories coincide only in regard to the birth of Arthur, the Roman Expedition, and the final battle; the first is almost entirely the life of Arthur alone, and in the second Lancelot is the chief figure, and more prominence is given to other knights of the Round Table and the search for the Sangreal...
