...tried his hand at reporting.- and will probably be a successful Writer-had young John Wiley (who saw military training only in its earliest stages-his Freshman year) been to the War in any capacity whatsoever, he could never have written The Education of Peter, Yet, his is a fresher generation, a healthier generation, an unhurt generation - a generation that should accomplish much...
...adventure in the Bostonian theatre, which deserves their interest, which, in measure, depends upon their support? A little company of amateurs often drawing close to professional skill and pains, has taken the Peabody Playhouse at 357 Charles Street for three months. There they will produce plays of the newer, fresher sort, that within easy recollection were novel and successful in New York; that no other hands are likely to bring hither. They are now making a beginning with "Ambush," as truthful, human, moving tragedy, in little and around the corner, as an American playwright has written. They so stage...
Comparison of the Orchestra with that of Boston is inevitable.

No longer can one pretend merrily that 12 o'clock is mid-day nor gain spiritual merit by getting up in the wee sma' hours of the morning...
...sometimes apt to think that the voices that sounded at the dawn of poetry were simple, fresher, and more natural than ours, and that the world which the early poets looked at, and through which they walked, had a kind of poetical quality of its own, and almost without changing could pass into song. The snow lies, thick now upon Olympus, and its steeped scarped sides are bleak and barren, but once, we fancy, the white feet of the Muses brushed the dew from the anemones in the morning, and at evening came Apollo to sing to the shepherds...
