...examine, in fact it might as well have been called the "Preparedness Number." But this militant emphasis should not be decided on the score of militating against the supposed purpose of the number or because of bringing forward the question which so agitates the pacifists, who (heaven be praised) form but a restless minority at Harvard.

And yet it is by no means certain that some form of paternalism would not be desirable. The Quadrangler is not disposed to quarrel with those who assert that the average professor, with his exact mind and his curious notions of what the public ought to know, is ill-fitted to run a newspaper but he does contend that something ought to be done to insure the use of decent English in news stories...
