...principles of English technique were concerned, all the writers seemed to agree that they should be acquired before men enter college. That is why we consider Mr. Castle's appointment as a step decidedly in the right direction, towards the cleansing of the English taught, or rather left untaught, in the elementary schools. If-now a demand for better English is accompanied with a liberal system of entrance requirements such as Harvard has introduced, we can see the demolition of the above argument that college demands shut out proper training in English...
...mass meeting now comes to gather up the various threads of approval and confidence and weave them into one force of enthusiasm. This enthusiasm must be sanctioned by the intelligent, critical approval which has been developed but it must now be emotionalised into a solid voice of support and taught to express itself in cheers and songs.

...lives, most of them to leave this world of comparative comfort for one of true hardship and struggle. They have handed over their College sinecures to 1914 and are about to tackle real labor on which more than mere outward success will depend. Yet these sinecures, we hope, have taught them the principles of real success outside. The class of 1913 has come through the many vicissitudes that have threatened it with flying colors and leaves us now with our best wishes for the future. We say only au revoir because we shall see many of her men in Cambridge...
