...stories are neither very interesting nor very well very written. The editors as well as the authors are to blame for such mistakes as "Charles Dicken's reputation," "a vastly higher strata," the wrong use of "formula" on page 26, and the sudden change of a character's name from Josh to Amos on page 29. Even if the material handed in afforded no fiction with the snap we are accustomed to expect in Advocate stories, care should be taken to avoid such examples of slovenliness...
...chosen because it has been written down upon the colored card. It is seldom that an intelligent selection of courses can be made from reading the elective pamphlet alone. Particularly are snap judgments inadvisable,--a selection made on the assurance of a classmate that the course is "easy," a sudden whim, or even at times the advice of a Faculty adviser. Trial visits, careful consideration of both subject-matter and instructor are necessary. In spite of the annoying but necessary "red tape" involved, the Committee on Electives readily allows intelligent changes. And in a matter involving one's intellectual development...
...nation that desires war and is prepared for it would, by submitting the case to a court, lose the advantage of surprise by a sudden attack and hence would be less anxious to go to war.

...temporary loss of Fripp through illness, the batting slump of Reed, and the sudden resignation of Coach Sexton were mid-season misfortunes which loomed large, but all three have since been cleared away. P. D.

Another change was made in taking Frye from the pitching staff and placing him in centre field, much to the improvement...
There are five poems in this issue, all of them above the usual ideal of space fillers. Mr. Hillyer contributes two; a "Song" and a "Threnos." The "Song" is an exquisite bit--rhymeless, but using the same terminating words for each stanza. The "Threnos" is a sudden cynical outburst of still more interesting form; the lines of the first stanza become successively the refrains of the following stanzas. Mr. Cummings contributes a "Ballade of Soul," a true ballade--of a more complicated type, however, than generally seen. Yet Mr. Cummings, for all the limited number of rhymes, makes his poem...
