...Union before it shall be satisfied in a matter of keen interest to all its members. And yet no reason is assigned for this delay except the desire of the Union to draw a large number of men Thursday. The motive surely is an insufficient one, not to say selfish, and shows a lack of college spirit. To be sure, the Union conducted the canvass to a certain degree upon its own account; yet it has committed a breach of courtesy in keeping the college so long in suspense. Even if it purposes, also, to open the canvass again, there...
...brilliant lecturer. In order to give his lecture here, Mr. Coquelin has been forced to make a considerable sacrifice, as his time in Boston is very limited and his friends numerous.

...wish to say a word to those who are in the habit of inserting notices in the CRIMSON. In past years it has always been customary to print various notices which are important to the members of different athletic teams, clubs and societies. We find, however, that this privilege is liable to abuse; that many notices are published which are of little consequence to any one in college, and that other notices are being reprinted day after day.
