...course, important that many of these short sketches should be preserved in the Graduates' Magazine; but it is unfortunate that a number should be composed almost wholly of such things at a time when the rapid change of conditions has brought up a quantity of important questions which demand serious and extended discussion. Perhaps it is enough to say that most of the articles in the present number would not have been at all out of place in the Bulletin; and the Graduates' Magazine can certainly render its readers more important services than that.

Now it does not seem fair to have this money turned over to furnish a trip for some minor team when the courts upon which about 400 men play daily are in such unfit condition and so inadequate to meet the demand. Two things ought certainly to be done: first, to put the present courts into suitable condition, and then to build more. Aside from the question of providing exercise for the largest possible number of men, the principles of equity demand this change...
