...serve humanity by doing hospital and ambulance work in England and France." The writer of the editorial then goes on to criticise these men who are pusillanimous enough to prefer to risk their lives in the relief of suffering rather than serve gloriously in their respective college regiments, even as he.

It is thought that the cause was probably due to Professor ----'s well-known anti---- sympathies." Or this is not at all unlikely: "An emergency meeting of the ---- ---- for ---- in 60 Mount ---- ---- was raided last evening. ---- ---- was speaking when...
