...include all the College periodicals except the five undergraduate papers, gives interesting information on a subject probably little known to undergraduates. Variety and relief are gained by an amusing ghost story by Mr. H. B. Sheahan. On the whole, the issue, though somewhat perfunctory in tone and journalistic in style, is mildly interesting and informing...
...here last month by Mr. Perey MacKaye '97, on "The Drama of Democracy." The lecture itself, as all who heard it will agree, was a brilliant performance, an interesting and inspiring thesis maintained with vigor and enthusiasm, in a spirit of fine idealism. The impression of a highly imaginative style rising at times almost to splendor, which Mr. MacKaye's delivery conveyed, is now deepened when one has the chance to read these paragraphs with care.

Edgell, a fish story in New England dialect, and "McVane's Retirement." by R. E. Andrews, the story of a railroad wreck, are decidedly conventional both in style and plot. Mr. Wheclock's poem. "A Work of Art," is a dignified bit of verse, characterized, like all his work, by serious purpose and marked excellence of form...
