...force on suicide; Mr. Williams depicts vituperative Frenchmen "bandying jovial indecencies" till the order comes: "All sections roll tomorrow at four. ***Trenchbombs." Mr. Sparks tells of an aviator killed in an accident and of the French girl who mourned him. As in many stories that deal with passion, the author's vehemence does not carry the reader with it. The final paragraph is dangerously reminiscent of the Bab Ballads...
...people of America must put the idea of 'doing their bit' out of their minds at once, as England did after said experience with that catch phrase," said Captain Louis Keene, C. E.

As for Producer Woods, he is doing as well as when he produced "Bertha, the Beautiful Cloak Model," but not much better...
Tomorrow's production will be a set of four one-act plays written by students in English 47. The first of the plays, "Every Man's Bit," was written by Miss Lois Compton of Radcliffe. Hubert Osborne, Sp., holder of the MacDowell Fellowship in Dramatic Composition, is the author of the second playlet, entitled "The Readjustment." The third composition, "Dayspring," is by J. R.
