...mood of the "Follies" and the other is the mood possessed by what Cyril Harcourt has termed "Consumptive Puritans." Both plays are rare treats,--but only to those who do not carry the above-mentioned attitudes with them to the Wilbur Theatre. Some may claim that it doesn't take a sick Puritan to turn pale when Shaw's burlesque of early Christianity really gets under way. That would be true,--if one dared take Shaw seriously. But one doesn't, so we call it "delightfully amusing" instead. Which only goes to show that the attitude is the main thing...

...especially its newest members, with material for self-felicitation. The Cornell freshman is distinctly heckled, it appear. There are places where he mustn't go at all, places where he may go if he wears a coat and an official cap, and places where he may go if he doesn't sit in the first three rows. If he wishes to smoke a numeral pipe, he may do so only in the privacy of his own chamber. He must never, never wear a preparatory school pin. He must not remain seated in a street-car while an upperclassman stands...

...Every player and every Harvard man has got cockles of his heart that can be warmed by applause. Don't be afraid of what the other fellow thinks because you are enthusiastic, but show your own interest-get the ball rolling. You don't need organized cheering, but it doesn't do a bit of harm to have some leader out in front to start the applause. We do not want the old talk about Harvard indifference to revive. It will, if you don't get into the game more. OLD GRADUATE...

...deceased was a good enough fellow, but addicted to awful poor jokes. He used to always pretend after he had lost a ball game to any of our teams, that he hadn't lost-it at all, and of course this doesn't bother us at all, because we know all about it, but it don't look right to the outside world that is scrutinizing us close. He never beat us once, but from what he printed you'd think we never got a game, and that the Lampoon had about the classiest gang of pill-casters that ever...
