...editorials, that entitled "Those Iron Things in the Yard" contains a practical suggestion that many a sufferer would be glad to see adopted. If a box-hedge is less beautiful, it is at least less painful. The paragraph on "Arnold Bennett and Harvard" is very entertaining; we all share the marvel of our visitors "at the fearful intricacies of a library on route...
...decidedly effective. But as an argument, which it apparently sets out to be, its upshot is not quite clear. It was hardly necessary to prove that "Satanism" still survives, though some facts cited by Mr. Wright may not be generally familiar.

Particularly as there is nothing else of special value or interest in the number. "Professor Spink" continues his mildly satirical lectures in a style which will...
Under the present rules such a situation as is outlined in the first paragraph of this morning's article is only too frequent. For the man just entering college, Phi Beta Kappa is over two years away. During that time the candidate has at best a vague idea of his chances for the junior Eight. Neither of these facts tends to keep up his interest in what should be one of the most popular competitions is College...
