...fate of the remaining dinner is yet to be seen. The invitations were sent out over two weeks ago and to date but four tickets have been sold. Such a showing is disgraceful. These dinners are the chief entertainments given by the Sophomore class. Members of the class should realize that class spirit, if it means anything, calls for some slight effort on the part of the class. The Sophomores failed to attend the first dinner as they should; the least they can do is to back up their officers and show true class spirit by a large and enthusiastic...
When we know how exhaustively undergraduates discuss the questions of the day, decide the fate of nations, and solve the problems of the universe, it seems strange to us that they should so coyly decline from putting their thoughts on paper, or, at all events, in print. This becoming reticence cheats the College papers, for they receive little or no support from men who are not editors.

It takes some lines, however, for the reader to decide which York is meant, the only New York, the English city, or the old English settlement in Maine. Mr. Schenck contributes a story, Fate and the Traitress, novel in situation. The reader is quite taken by surprise twice during the tale. A very good novel might well be made from this short story. Some rather blind verses on The Blind Angel, and reviews of recent books close the number...
...Pardoner's Tale." There roisterers go forth to kill Death, but become embroiled in an altercation concerning the division of a pot a gold which they have found. In the dispute all are killed. The play ends with the specter of Death standing over the three, symbolic of the fate of those who seek gold with evil intent...
