...work a whole year only "for fun." The spring concert is the one aim of the clubs all the year, no less for the sum to be given the crew than for its pleasure. Nor is the plea for "consistency" less absurd. Why interfere with a few beneficial and harmless freshman organizations, because others which have no merit to them wish to be formed?

Of two papers apparently alike, one may be very dangerous and the other perfectly harmless. Greens, reds, browns, blues and yellows, all are suspicious, and the only safe way is to test them by a process which was described by the lecturer...
