With the advent of the Freshman Dormitories and the consequent readjustment of certain phases of undergraduate life has come an agreement between a number of clubs regulating the election of members. The subscribers to this agreement, which is printed in full below, are the A.D., Delphic, Digamma, Fly, Iriquois, Kalumet, Owl, Phoenix, Porcellian, Spee, and Sphinx. The movement was initiated and put through entirely by students; its first effect will be to keep the Freshman class a unit...

Without sincerity there is no great art, but sincerity alone is not quite the whole story. Mr. Butler-Thwing's poems are marked by delicacy of feeling and a certain just refinement of phrase, but they lack directness of inspiration and first-hand freshness of speech. They are earnest, eager, painstaking and -- traditional. The author has not yet quite released himself from his models,--for a guess, Tennyson in poetry and Pater in the prose. Of the poems, "The Death...
