...seems that some of the undergraduates are not as yet thoroughly posted. To end the matter, then, we would remark that the yellow and white edifice on the northern side of Holmes Field is the college hospital, and we would add that the building is well fitted in every respect for the purposes for which it was built...

...Holly Tree: and the nocturnal journeys to that Paradise whence Adam has not yet been expelled, and at whose gates no flaming sword checks the wanderer, save, it may be, that metaphorical cutlass, the "11 o'clock law," - each and all of these we greet with renewed respect and affection, and then look about us to ascertain the cause for the slight feeling of vacuity that we, as a student body, experience.

Here at Harvard, literary activity is the exception rather than the rule. Still it is true that in this respect, the present year goes far ahead of many previous years, Let us hope that next year will outstrip this.
