It is refreshing to find in this a story that is local, of today and not of yesterday, and possible, with at least three entirely original expressions or ideas on each page. The one fault is slight exaggeration of the phraseology in undergraduate conversation--it is too clever. A new feature is the record of events in the University for the month...
