...pleasure on returning to find the Monthly starting its fortieth volume the day before College opens. As its first leader no subject more timely or essential could have been chosen than "The Union;" and no person better fitted to discuss it than H. S. Thompson, whose article is valuable and concise, and of great moment to members of the class of 1909. The tribute to the present undergraduate officers and committees of the club is well merited, the discussion of its policy and aim sound, and the estimation of its advantages to the individual is, if anything, too moderate...
...literary merit. Though worth while for one picture alone, "the good days before Tilly swept up from the south on his way to Magdeburg", it has less interest for the average College man than "Probation (A Study in Geographical Antipathy)," by J.

Very truly yours, CHARLES R. SANGER. June...
...must be destroyed or it would destroy the nation. And he was a man of such intrepid courage that he was willing to undertake in all calmness of mind what in another person would have been insanity. Invincible courage, even in a doubtful cause, is sure to inspire and find applause among other brave men. Thus when we honor you, soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic, and as often as we decorate the graves of your comrades, and your own, as you fall by the way in this long march to the common home of all men, whether...
