...expect to spend the day right here in Cambridge singing Songs from Vagabondia in the best Carmen manner as I gayly trip to Emerson J with shredded wheat on my breast and waistcoat--to hear Professor Prescott lecture on the Principle of Integration. Then to counteract this I shall blossom forth amid the literary buds in Sever 28 where ten o'clock will find Professor Lowes discussing Shelley--a far from, integrated person--or was he? At least I know the story about the ladies and his crossing the room clad only in disremembrance...
Torn open by capitalism in search of markets, Japan was strong enough to retaliate in kind. But, because she possesses vitality, she is non the less a blossom of the East. Her people may enshroud a mystic temper and a love of occult ritualism with the paraphernalia of foreign trade; it is but in self-defense: she smells of sandalwood still.

The mother grieved herself to the edge of death, and the two lads, seeing that it was no laughing matter, took counsel together. They thought of a way to make their father come home. One night when there was no moon they stole out of the house and made...
...haven't," he said, "as much of it now as we once had, but we certainly are beginning to see more light operas than we have for many years. I doubt that the Shuberts ever have made as much money in their history as they recently did with 'Blossom Time', and operetta built around the life and music of Franz Schuberts. "The Student Prince" is still another case in point. Light opera may or may not be back to stay. It will be the public's loss if it is not, but then I walk warily in the paths...
