Our aim will be to represent the best thought of the university, as well as the best purely literary work. It may be well to add that while the Literary Monthly is founded primarily for undergraduates, we shall endeavor to publish in each issue an article by a professor or by some graduate of note.

...home, where you are a sort of sovereign, the kind endearment of an amiable woman, who has no wish but to make you happy, then marriage is truly the condition in which true felicity is to be found." This is orthodox enough, but Boswell goes on to add frankly, "I think we may strike a good medium." Just what this means, he proceeds to show by a practical illustration.
