...pretty much as he pleases at all hours of the day and night. During the spring months in particular, the noise and disturbance throughout the night become so annoying that sleep is often almost impossible. The various men in training have issued unavailing pleas for quiet, but the criminally thoughtless rioters have continued their noise unchecked...
...prose story "A Woman There Was," is a study of a coquette, thoughtless but not all bad, and a sturdy unsophisticated rustic youth. The phases of feeling and the development of character are well set forth; but how could the young lady be "enclosed by her background," and what is a "perennial" sermon?

We believe it is only thoughtless; but repeated appeals should...

It is never ill will that causes a disturbance at night, but thoughtlessness pure and simple. A thoughtless noise, however, is just as effective as an ill-willed noise in keeping a man awake; and as sleep is of such vital importance to the teams, we ask every man to make a point first of keeping quiet himself and second, of reminding anyone...
