...contents are not above average merit, judging them by the standards of undergraduate composition. Of the three poems, the most ambitious and decidedly the best is "Nobody's Land." One passes indifferently over the trite "heart-story" which lies behind this rhapsody and forgives Mr. Jopling some melodramatic lines, content to find in him true appreciation of the great western desert and a gift of expression which sometimes reaches eloquence. There is nothing to praise, in Mr. Murdock's effusion on "The Game." It embodies an idea latent in the minds of many people, that poetry means making similes...

...stories are the least satisfactory part of the Advocate's contents. Mr. Larrabee's narrative of conversion and the mysterious ways of Providence is slow in starting and foggy in psychology. We have no faith in the hero's change of heart, for he is ever a creature of impulse and moves when and where his creator would have him. "Borrowing a Smile," by Mr. Clark, save that it is more firmly constructed than the other story, has little to recommend it. The moral is hackneyed, and the subject is just such a one as would suit a Munsey "storiette...

...sort need be said. In the Law Review elections announced this morning five of the fourteen men, or 36 per cent., are Harvard graduates. This has, indeed, been a quick recovery and we hope that it will prove permanent. Harvard graduates in the Law School evidently took to heart the criticism which they received. And the elections this year are the more gratifying because they tend to indicate that the sudden deterioration was merely a temporary lapse of ability or application...

...immediate dollars farther than he can his own honor and future pleasure. But we venture to say that to almost every Senior the crime of speculation begets a penalty awful enough to keep him from it whatever may be his moral inclination. New Harvard men should take this to heart and shun the speculator who comes out from town with his pockets lined with gold. Once blacklisted, all the gold in the world cannot get them tickets to Harvard games again, and no amount of repentance can return to-them their honor in the eyes of loyal Harvard...
