...look into the future we can hope to see a large spacious theatre owned by the city, which has become the centre of the people's life. The theatre will have become a true delight. The actor freed from the hard work and the notoriety of today will devote himself to his art and fulfill the real duties of a citizen. We are beginning to realize that the theatre is not merely a place "for the wise to seek foolish gratification and the foolish to remain so." Let everybody help free the theatre from this commercial bondage. The opposition will...
...recent years it has become rather the pose of many Harvard undergraduates to profess ignorance of everything in Cambridge not intimately connected with their pursuit of happiness. At the mention of glass flowers or vesper services, they assume an intensely cynical look and say that these are excellent things to amuse one's family, but really hardly worthy of note.

If the old Advocate was a bit ponderous, the new Advocate--is it my years?--seems to me not quite heavy enough...
...night in the Union this evening will serve a double purpose. It will give a man an opportunity to idle away pleasantly an hour of the evening and it will give him a chance to see what the Musical Clubs really look like. It is by no means an exaggeration to say that a great many men in the University never know who's who in any of the musical clubs, under the regime where the clubs only appear in the dual concerts two or three times a year, in the Middle West during the Holidays, and perhaps, once...
