...much sympathy will attend the fleeing Deputy. The common opinion is that duplicity has only got its due, and sober Italians will be more than glad to be rid of so dangerous a plotter against law and order. Indeed, the fate, of the would-be Italian Lenine is possibly an indication that Bolshevism is on the wane in Italy: Given a full dinner-pall and the mishaps of the "Russian Deputy" to chuckle over, the Italian workman will perhaps prove safe for democracy. As for Misiano, he will doubtless soon be on his way once more to his Russian fatherland...

The Norfolk Country Club went down to defeat by the score of four to three, and the Navy met a similar fate at Annapolis, losing eight matches and winning only one.

At Harvard, where the lecture system is a favorite with the faculty, it is especially important to realize...
Such is the monstrous fate which overhangs the hapless undergraduate. What a relief, therefore, to learn that the fuss is all due to a new efficiency system whereby the "goody" must give a reason if a room is not "made up"--and the easiest excuse is, of course, that the occupant rose too late. This is to protect the "goody" from being discharged for laziness. So the persecuted student may breathe freely once more and seek his downy coach without fear that his "morning after" snores will shake Olympus.
