...movements of the other. The Yale quarters are about half a mile above ours, but their movements too can be observed to a certain extent with the aid of a glass. Our quarters are a great deal exposed to both sun and wind, but the broad veranda supplies shade, and shelter from the wind can always be found. The one large room up-stairs is entirely devoted to the purposes of a dormitory. Underneath it is the room, which serves as reading room, dining room and reception room. Separated from this by a passage not enclosed, is the kitchen. Everything...
...society will make a much greater step forward than ever before, and the gentlemen at the head of it have now learned much better the demands of collegians in all directions so that even the good work and the results of this year will be left behind in the shade. From Feb. 16 to July 1, 1883, the business amounted to $3,265.62, and this year, to July 1, it is estimated at $7,005.00.

An account of the origin of our color would be of interest, and would increase, I think, a desire to have a uniform shade...
...have ornamental headings. The HERALD-CRIMSON, being in a transition state as to its name must await the time with patience before it can again appear with an artistic capping. The Advocate although neat in its appearance would look much more attractive in a cover of some delicate shade pleasing to the eye. It seems strange that with so many fine arts' students our fortnightly should be behind those of other colleges in this respect. Its appearance in a new cover would make an important addition to the newly fledged brood of artistic-looking papers...
