...freshmen made more than usual disturbance at the Chemistry lecture yesterday, cheering, clapping and stamping their feet. This kind of thing is usual among freshman classes, but it is to be hoped that they will get their childishness worn off very soon...
...less numerous clubs, societies, and class and athletic organizations, the Harvard student is required to cast a vote for somebody or other, on an average, twice a week during the college year.

A strange thing, full of pathos and power is the personal reminiscence of J. S. Phillips, '85, entitled "Joe and I." It is well conceived and contains a psychological study of deep interest. "A Power of the Past," by J. E. Sinnott, '86, is a piece of unusual merit. G. R. Carpenter...
