...Harvard Types" is continued by Louis How in an overdrawn and at the same time rather weak sketch of "Harry Whooper." It is to be hoped that those outside the college who read the "Types" will not think that they really do describe typical Harvard men. There are three "College Kodaks." The first and last are poor, while the second is very pretty. "My Wall Paper" is a pleasant story by Knoblauch. "A Long Time to Wait" is one of the best things that Chamberlin has written this year. It is a rather pathetic story and is very well done...
...that Captain Frothingham accepted it. We have the repeated assertions from Captain Frothingham himself that such a statement is entirely false. Captain King is certainly laboring under a misunderstanding. We do not accuse him of intentional misrepresentation but we feel perfect confidence in the word of our captain and think him capable of remembering any agreement he might have made.

...point wherein the Oxford student has the advantage, or disadvantage as the reader may think, over the American college student, is the regulation that no one shall pursue separate courses of study until he has been at the university a year. No matter what his knowledge may be every man is obliged to wait a year before trying to pass his "Moderations," as they are called; then if successful, he is allowed to study "The Finals," or elective courses. Thus taking a three year's course instead of one of four years, is scarcely feasible or practicable...
...been in either school, or least not in Exeter, a reunion of any class on commencement day. There has been some talk of a scheme of this kind but nothing definite has been done. A little engineering, however, a little push by a graduate of each academy, would, we think, be sufficient to arouse the necessary enthusiasm. A reunion would be a pleasant revival of past associations. It would come at a time when nearly every one is through with examinations and free to do as he pleases; and it is easy to see to what satisfactory results it might...
