...townswomen of Salem are discovered making merry in the absence of their husbands who have gone to fight the Indians. When Cavendishe, who is one of the leaders in the expedition, returns to Salem, he decides to forbid public love-making. In an effort to evade this law, Charitie sends a love message to Portentous; but owing to a misconception, the latter believes his suit hopeless and attempts suicide. Just at this time the two exiles arrive by ship and are allowed to remain after examination. As they go in search of lodgings, Mothere Broomstycke and her crew of witches...
...jumping on account of the rain, but the running and weight work were carried on as usual. Having been built a year ago last August this track is now thoroughly packed, and with use it will become fully as good as the old track on Holmes Field. An effort is being made to arrange the finishing points of several of the events at one place, so that the system of distance marks may be less complicated than that of Holmes Field...

In the low forms of religion, the fear is abject, hopeless; and it is only with the help of Christian love that we can avoid this and realize that we are in a measure akin to God, however many feelings we may have...
...series of sketches, "Summer Days," by A. P. Wadsworth '02, is done with much close attention to detail, but in spite of this, has a naturalness which prevents it from being tiresome or seeming forced. As a whole, the series is much better than such an effort generally is, on account of the ease with which its life like description moves. "At the House of the Countess," by F. Watson '02, is unusually well done, with the exception of the last part, which seems hasty, and makes one regret that the ending, however good in conception, was not better handled...
