...sarcastic manner she sneers at the existing social system, and in a covert way advances the ideas of socialism. Like much else that has been written, it treats the world as being all wrong, all employers being grinding oppressors and all poor men injured and down-trodden. The general impression left by the book is one of gloom and foreboding...
...courses in the architectural department, in drawing, in building construction, and in practice in modelling; two new half courses in geology, one in meteorology, the other in elementary Physiography; Philosophy 8, a half course on Kant, to be given by Professor James; and Hygiene 10, a half course on general hygiene to be given by Assistant Professor Fitz.

We should like to see steps taken this year toward an improvement...

Moe '97, is a very creditable bit of work in a somewhat different vein from the general run of Lampoon illustrations. The "Constitution of the Guff Club," and "A Hunting Song," the latter presented as an extract from "Ralegh in Guiana," are both clever hits and funny, a statement that cannot truthfully be made of the remaining contributions that make up the number...
