...succession, the feeling is likely to prevail that the next race will turn the scales in Yale's favor, and it is this very point of which our crew need to be reminded. If the men are faithful and train properly there is really no reason why the same result should not be attained this year as formerly. Greater difficulties, it is true, must be overcome. The fact that Yale's crew have been on the water all the winter shows that they will leave no effort untried in order to bring victory to their side. Moreover, they have three...
...students. After the recess there is every probability that the College will allow the debates to be held in a suitable room, and it is to be hoped that then a society which has started under such favorable auspices will accomplish the good that it aims at. But this result can only be reached by the co-operation of all its members in doing earnest work. About eighty members of the University have already signed the Constitution which was adopted Wednesday night, and from this number we may look for good debates on topics of current interest...
Putting together the Stagirite, the Saint, and Politico, we arrive at the following process and result.

That cases of nervous disease occur even among young children, as a direct effect of our present school system, is known to every physician. People wonder at the increase of weak eyes, of brain disease...
...twenty lectures given in the Freshman year are so interesting that many would gladly pursue the subject further. Chemistry 1 is justly a popular course, but those who take it think that enough might be left out to make it count only two hours, and yet attain the same result. It seems unnecessary to the general student to follow every element into all its combinations when only a few will be found of any practical use. In Physics, also, there is room for a course which should meet the wants of a larger number. If it is possible to treat...
