...plan answers my first question in the negative; the others can have but one reply. Again, this arrangement will bring new advantage to all concerned; it will enable those outside to come in and enjoy the associations of the dining-hall, thereby filling up the tables and insuring the success of the Association; and, moreover, it will lessen the price of the regular board; for each man would pay the regular price beside paying for such extras as he might order; but those who took extras would naturally not consume the regular fare, although they pay for it; therefore...

For instance, unless a special effort is made, it will be impossible to order more than one racing-boat; and although it is desirable to get a boat from England, the risk in bringing it over is so great that the experiment will not be made unless there is something...
