...seem worthy of a Harvard publication. In entire disinterestedness we do not think it right for a paper which aims to represent, in some degree at least, the best undergraduate opinion as well as the best undergraduate literary ability at Harvard, to embark on a red-hot campaign of bitter personal invective against the President, no matter who he may be, of these United States. Whatever he has done or left undone, no American critic seriously doubts that President Wilson is striving today, as he has always striven, to advance what he considers to be the best interests...
...audience, however, will be certain to hear the best-equipped authority in this country. Even more than his knowledge do we respect the dignity, loyalty and fair-mindedness of the former executive during the past seven year. In that period of bitter feeling and harsh criticism, he was unmoved by party or personal animosity and has been influenced only by his wide knowledge and upright character.

Like the German "kultur" whence it sprang, the continuation of its raison d'etre is no longer desirable, unless, of course, we should decide to perpetuate the results of "kultur" in an up-to-date chamber of horrors. The problem of disposition must somehow be solved. At present it is but a monument of disputed architectural beauty, and of no practical benefit to its founders...
...very depressing to see our fine boys brought here in such numbers badly wounded and makes one very bitter against the military organization of Germany which is responsible for it all. There is no question that the leaders should receive individual punishments for their crimes and every town in Germany should be made to pay for the restoration of a French town. We all feel that nothing short of this will satisfy the French, who have suffered so much more than we have...
