...real genuine student I would not wonder. To be sure he is no driver, and if you do make a mistake in German the students laugh. Then I said, "You must let him stay until June." Now he has dropped German and has Prof. Muensterberg. I saw your article on "The Scholarship Service Bureau" and now he has a tutor in Mathematics. Believe me I'll do my best not to have him thrown out in June, but how to prevent it I hardly know, but I urge my son to study hard and do his best. Now cannot...
...best yet" means a great deal as applied to the theatricals of the Pi Eta Club, and yet it is a verdict pronounced with emphasis by those who saw the first public performance of "Robin the Robber" last night.

Among these scientific losses I shall mention one especially deplorable. Professor Van Gehuchten had published, twenty years ago, a work on the anatomy of the nervous system, which had won for him a world-wide reputation. In June, 1914, he had finished...
...faintest idea whether the most recent "flower Day" was for a Jewish society, or a Turkish or Swedish one. He simply knew that it was a private campaign, unauthorized by the University, and with an aim not generally known in the University. The CRIMSON is sorry if any one saw in the editorial an imputation that the "flower day" Monday was an attempt to get money under false pretenses. Nothing of the sort was intended...
