Monte Cristo, Jr., is a typical Winter Garden show, possessing all the requisites expected of this form of entertainment, namely, quantities of pretty girls in all sixes, countless costumes that are ravishingly beautiful, comedians that tell all the latest jokes and bewildering changes of scenery...

...misconception has provoked the spirited derision or the silent scorn of those famaliar with the facts. Acknowledging that the use of alcoholic stimulants had has a certain vogue at Harvard, they deny that it has been greater there than at other universities; and they contend that no one can tell whether its influence has been for good or evil. Alcohol has damaged some young men in college, no doubt,--though it would probably have damaged them just the same if they had never gone to college.

...welcome the members of the fifty-seven classes of graduates who are here to celebrate the day. There is not the slightest need this year to hope that spreads and dinners will be a success, or that all will have a good time. No acute observer is needed to tell us that joy is in the air, that celebration is at the same high pitch as one any pre-war Class Day, and that both will reign triumphant until the last observation-train pulls out of New London Friday night, to the tune of "This is Harvard's Day."
