...ubiquitous vender of clothes-wires has no sooner left the steps of Memorial than the sleek distributor of the seductive cigarette moves into his place. The fiat has gone forth, however, and inexorable fashion declares that the cigarette is no more to be used, as formerly.

There has, however, been nothing in the conduct of the managers of our crew which should call forth such a deluge of venom and abuse from the News. Charitably supposing that the writer of the article is not guilty of gross misrepresentation nor deliberate falsehood - for we are loth to believe that even of the News - we are forced to conclude that the News was grossly ignorant of the facts and possibilities of the case, and, in publishing such a scurrilous article under such circumstances, was misled by its ignorance...

EDITORS HARVARD HERALD: The article in the last Advocate with the above title has been effective in exciting considerable feeling, and in calling forth several indignant rejoinders. In particular, the president of our chief musical society has disclaimed the existence of favoritism towards candidates for membership, and the Crimson, in its last issue, has devoted two editorials to an energetic refutal of the assertions contained in the article in question. The author of the article is charged especially with indefinite accusations which he does not substantiate. This alleged fault of his can hardly be deemed a fair criticism...
