...conditions arising from the war have affected the class treasury in numerous ways, and have cut down the expenditures under every head, while barely reducing the credits. No class dinner was held last year, and as a result no expense was incurred from this source. A thousand dollars was spent, however, in the purchase of ten $100 Liberty Bonds of the first issue. Seven hundred dollars were also loaned from the class fund to the 1920 Red Book because of the unfavorable conditions for issuing a Freshman Year Book. A large part of this money, however, will be repaid...
...cents a pound in Europe today, and much more scarcely obtainable than it is here. We have sugar from California, Colorado, Idaho, Michigan and Ohio; from the Louisiana and Texas cane fields and mills, from Porto Rico and from Hawaii, as well as Cuba; with the result that there is no month in the entire year in which American-grown sugar is not being harvested and moved to market...
Sometimes when the work becomes particularly monontonous, inquiry is made as to what the value of close order drill is. It seems so useless as preparation for battle, the result is that men become careless about the whole matter.

It has been with us too long. Although cut loose from a program of efficiency...
...ever informed us of Phillips Brooks' words, should he enter Phillips Brooks House. For the Bishop was an inveterate smoker. He purchased a brand of long, black cigars, which were not labeled Colorado Claro, and these he did not use sparingly. But think of the utter chaos which would result from Phillips Brooks lighting a cheroot in Phillips Brooks House in the year 1917. No mild reproval or honey-worded request would be tendered him. Forcible ejection would be the only method of treatment. Tobacco is now taboo in Phillips Brooks, and it would be so even in the case...
