...gratifying to learn that the loan-furniture system has proven so successful this year that the committee which has it in charge feels encouraged to try to work on a larger scale next year. Any scheme of this kind which reduces in a legitimate way the necessary expenses of the man who desires to go through college as economically as possible deserves to be encouraged. We hope that the circular issued by the committee to seniors, to which attention is called on the first page, will meet with a considerable response. Many men are here afforded an opportunity to help...
...prospect of future success was not bright. At this juncture several Harvard men came forward, noticeably G. S. Mandell '89, then captain of the Mott Haven team, and R. S. Hale '91, one of the formers of the original association. and reorganized the association on a larger scale. Money was raised for a cup, the association was made really representative of the New England schools, and in the spring of 1889 the first meeting of the new association took place on Holmes Field. This meeting was great success in every way, and was won by Worcester Academy, with Roxbury Latin...

We are loath to believe this. Though our meetings cannot be run on the scale of some of the larger athletic club meetings-the B. A. A., for instance-yet they can be brought up very greatly by making all the events open to outsiders. A successful trial at this was made in one event on Saturday. If necessary, then, cut down our winter meeting...
...this music of simultaneous notes at different pitch was composed in the old diatonic scale and addressed to an attitude of listening which on our hypothesis involved the latent anticipation more or less defined, of the sound of a certain one of its steps. This might in different compositions be any one of five or six different notes of the scale. In a music of chords composed under the influence of the feeling of tonality the triad on the tonic becomes the most important of all possible combinations of notes and appears at all points of close in a composition...
