This is particularly true here in the United States, where anybody's business is everybody's, and the free and constant expression of public opinion on every conceivable question, is a sore tempiation to foreign ambassadors. Public opinion, when properly guided, sways everything before it in this country, yet its force is swayed by cross rumors and expressions of personal views. There is no censorship of the press and everybody reads and criticizes.

More than once in the past, the CRIMSON has expressed the opinion that a dormitory would be the finest possible memorial, one which would be a far more constant reminder than an unused monument or a chapel.

The constant outcroppings of well-worn musical comedy tricks leads one to suspect considerable alteration from the original. There is mention of flappers as well as of other things quite unknown "when Hector was a lad", and the stage business is straight from Broadway. Indeed, it offered a strange contrast of methods to find the modified recitative of the original score standing side by side with stage capers of the Fred Stone school. Consequently, only the sureness and restraint...
