...enemies may be blinded by the Senate's unfortunate delay, and construe that hesitancy as weakness. They should know that no group of head-strong and coldly disloyal men may make the greatest of republics pusillanimous. Those Senators who raised their clamorous voices against war are proof not of our indecision, but of our true freedom. In more autocratic countries they would have been hanged...
...Dramatic Club presented its spring group of one-act plays in the Hasty Pudding Theatre last evening. The performance showed the result of some extremely competent coaching by the new director, Mr. S. A. Eliot, in a general evenness of acting and quietness and realism of tone. Exception might possibly be taken to the sombre quality of all four of the plays produced.

Throughout the University patriotic students are wondering to what new insults Harvard will be subjected by the deplorably malicious misrepresentation of its true ideals--the ideals of 1776, of 1861, and of 1898--by an insidious-minded group known as pacifists. Linked forever with the names of David Starr Jordan, of LaFollette and his immortal band, and of Bryan! They will be joyfully repudiated by succeeding generations of Harvard men. Unmindful alike of college and country, they should and will be ostracized. WILLIAM A. READ, JR., '18. ROBERT...
