...sins of the bad. The second editorial, an appeal to the serious minded for a right understanding of the "College butterfly," is very seasonable. The longer contributions are all in prose with one exception, "The Two Wreaths," a poem in three stanzas, delicate in thought and unfaltering in rhythm. "Philanthropists Unwitting" would read better if it were not curiously reminiscent of an earlier story of similar plot where a sacred volume interleaved with money is treated instead of as here "Elementary Aesthetics."

...third number of the Advocate contains six stories and four unusually good poems. The sonnet, "To Omar," is marked by a beauty of imagery and a musical rhythm which give it rank as one of the best poems the Advocate has published for a long time. "The West Wind," by A. D. Ficke, "The Light of Summer," by Roy Pier and "October," by "L. W." are all good; the first two, at least, are above the average verse of college magazines...
