...most ambitious story in the number is "Simple Heart," by Arthur Wilson--the tale of a romantic simpleton in a laundry and the undergraduate, not too shadowy to leave an impression of a hopeless cad. The story is told wholly from the girl's point of view; the man seems meant to be what he is, but somehow the tragedy of it all, in spite of some telling bits, fails to make the impression its elements should have commanded.

"The Serious-Minded Student" takes himself so solemnly as to be fair game for his mates; but though the species is known, the sketch leaves the reader wondering whether...
...London correspondent of the New York Times thus moralizes; "There is no greater snob than your university snob, no more outrageous cad than your cad who has worn an academic gown. This admitted, comes the concession that your university gentleman is a noble type of courtesy and good manners, and thus the debtor side of the ledger is pretty well balanced.
