...lubricity. The poems suffer in comparison with the work of Hillyer and Damon. The one essay contained much obvious truth, but seemed over weighted by verbosity, pedantry, and didacticism. The editorial page which failed to state the ambitions, purposes, and ideals of the magazine, presented a farrago of misplaced propaganda and flippancy. The theatrical page brought out some interesting points in atrocious English. The reprint from a New York paper served only to make New Yorkers blush...
...doubt that this is being attempted. The old imperial governmental mechanism has been taken over in whole by the Ebert government. The same men are in charge. The reported "panning" of the French and British by the American soldiers can be attributed only to one cause, German propaganda. By no other means would the wonderful unity of thought and feeling existent during the war be likely to be even so slightly broken. Undoubtedly the League of Nations is a subject worthy of the most careful consideration. In theory, it would appear to be an admirable means to keep the peace...

We were disappointed there; instead of going abroad with one of the Regular Army divisions General Wood was given command of Camp...
...this jesting is local, which is something very pleasing, and moreover decidedly intelligent--a great deal to say of a humorous paper in these days when Life exists only by virtue of fat Germans and suffragists, when Puck is little more than Semitic propaganda, and when Judge is pabulum for the barber-shop devotees. Lampy's quips, in addition, are courageous and independent...
