...more heat and less darkness in the chapel. It is, unfortunately, too early to insert our stereotyped editorial on heating the chapel, as there is a rule of the paper which forbids its use oftener than once a month. We, therefore, pass over the old grievance this time, and turn to the new complaint which has been made. The chapel, it is said, is too dark to allow the reading of psalms without injury to the eyes. We therefore, respectfully suggest that on cloudy mornings the gloomy chapel be illuminated by a stray candle here and there. The reader...
...turn to those college papers which have evidently "come to stay." Eighteen years ago the first number of the "Harvard Advocate appeared, and, from that time on, it has held a preeminent place among college publications.

No plank-walks mean wet feet, wet feet mean illness, illness means the doctor, and the doctor means-well, sometimes one thing and sometimes another. In the spring the yard often contains a system of small rivers, and when the bell rings we see the men coming...
...these maidens upon the faculty is demoralizing, effeminating and mollifying (I use the word in its first meaning) in the extreme. Therefore Messrs. Editors, despite a chivalric regard for the gentler sex in general, in this case solicitude for the welfare of our beloved University demands that we "turn the rascals...
