...article of the Monthly betrays a repetition of the sentiment. Dr. Everett, in English not particularly elegant, pictures student life at Harvard thirty years ago, and manages to intersperse a fair degree of contempt for certain methods which at present obtain among the students. But a class of students whose reading was Dickens, although two or more years younger than the corresponding class of to-day, were of course, "above the reproach of being magnificent animals," for those were halcyon days, when "boys began preparation for college younger," when "schools were not yet nurseries," and when students "liked books that...
...Moody, whose meetings were opened so auspiciously last evening in Sanders, will be with the students during this week. We cannot too highly compliment the Young Men's Christian Association upon its energy in procuring so earnest and successful a worker as Mr. Moody, and we trust that every hope may be justified by his labors.

It is urged that if any undergraduate was led by the enthusiasm of the moment to carry off the flags, he will certainly now show himself gentleman enough to return them when a clear statement of the circumstances is made. No questions will...
...Index, which has now become almost as regular an institution of the college as the annual catalogue, will probably appear in the course of a week or two. It is a very different matter to compile such a pamphlet of valuable information as the Index contains, whose chief interest lies in the fact that it comprises a brief of all the athletic events which took place during the past year, together with an authentic list of all the members of the various college societies. In obtaining these names, however, much necessary trouble is experienced, as the secretaries of the different...
