...course, and the action of the authorities in offering us such advantages is thoroughly appreciated. We wish, however, that our own professors would do something in this way for us, as well as for other colleges and for the public.

Of the piece itself, little that is favorable can be said. The acting is good, on the whole, especially that of Mr. Warren. "Dr. Clyde" will be continued next week...
