After the last word of the last address the student about whom the president and faculty were most concerned walked up the aisle and expressed a desire to lead a new life. "Do it now," I suggested. "Right here?" "Yes, right where you stand."
Another was Mr. The commission made careful inquiry into the operation of the poor-law relief system, and presented a report which marked an epoch in our social history, and might well have a deep interest even for the casual student of to-day.
Sermon-writing in our day, when the area over which a preacher may select his subject is so greatly widened, is probably to a reflective man a great help and relief, as furnishing what nearly every student needs to stimulate study a means of expression. Sustained solitary thinking is something of which very few men are capable.
Does the student know how many times, in how many forms, under how many different heads, he perseveringly inserts the bold assurance, that the form of poesy and enigmatic allusive writing is the only form in which the higher applications of his discovery can be made to any purpose in that age?
One evening-twilight in spring, a young English student, who had wandered northwards as far as the outlying fragments of Scotland called the Orkney and Shetland Islands, found himself on a small island of the latter group, caught in a storm of wind and hail, which had come on suddenly.
I heard of just one single instance where a customer desirous of having an article and willing to pay the price failed to get it; and that, I would say, stands without a parallel in the annals of commerce and barter.

Both principal and student searched thoroughly in the locker. Dick, as in duty bound, was still there, on guard at the door. "Mr. Prescott," asked puzzled Dr. Thornton, did any student have admittance to the locker after recess today?" "None, sir," answered Dick promptly. "Hm! And you're absolutely sure, Mr. Edwards, that you left the little package in your overcoat pocket?" "Positive of it, Dr.
It is obviously impossible that any student should pass through the whole of the series of courses of instruction offered by a university.
Here am I, going alone to this strange city, to be a solitary student there; and here is this chance arisen that you might dwell with me a bit, and be like my sister: you can surely understand this much, my dear, that I would just love to have you?" "Well, and here I am," said she. "So that's soon settled." I know I was in duty bounden to have spoke more plain.
