...Academy. They have been "through the mill" as cadets and have proved efficient teachers. Moreover, they are not teachers in the ordinary sense of the word.

...framed into a well designed and effectively printed magazine. The formula, of course is old. One operatic burlesque, at least one biblical parody, seasoning in the form of an occasional lapse from good taste (if any there be benighted enough to notice such things), the conventional allusions to Mr. Cram, Terry and University Hall-these are the essentials of a routine Lampoon.
