...pretty well decided that Harvard needs a new gymnasium. During the year the CRIMSON has tried to show this is various ways. Some idea of the buildings at other colleges has been given; articles have been run by Mr. Garcelon, Dr. Sargent and Dean Bradford. The present gymnasium, -- though, through the generosity of Mr. Hemenway, it was as well equipped at the time of its erection as any in the country, is now far below the standard of a large university...

Few have had more devoted followers, and few have been more wholly admirable in their attitudes toward their families. He stood unabashed before Victoria's rank, his boldness pleasing rather than disconcerting her. This was also the case elsewhere, the fact that he was outspoken proving attractive rather than repulsive. Perhaps his largest asset in achieving success was his imagination, which led him directly to his great schemes for England's territorial aggrandizement. In spite of his love for fame, he added...
