...with the finest ears, and listen to the sweetest voices of all time? More than that, it annihilates time and space for us; it revives for us without a miracle the Age of Wonder, endowing us with the shoes of swiftness and the cap of darkness, so that we walk invisible like fern-seed, and witness unharmed the plague at Athens or Florence or London; accompany Caesar on his marches, or look in on Catiline in council with his fellow conspirators, or Guy Fawkes in the cellar of St. Stephen's.

Now the matter does not seem to us to be a very serious one, and it calls for only...
...Saturday's issue you called attention to the need of a board walk across Holmes Field to the Carey Building. Please let me add that there is great need of one on Oxford street, on the way to the museum. Frequently the side-walk is so muddy and sloppy that the men in numbers leave it and take to the less muddy, but equally disagreeable, walking in the middle of the street.
