...known Cecil Rhodes, Conrad, Sir Alfred Milner. He has circumnavigated Africa 18 times, crossed it four times. He has been shot, cut, thrown overboard and almost hanged. And now, at 63, before he wrote this, his autobiography, he was penniless in Chicago. Compared to good old Trader Horn, his life has been more hazardous and more colorful, his philosophy and whole existence more worth while...
...afternoon, it only costs a quarter then. Sure she still works there. Sa-ay, she's smooth! But a big boy in a Cadillac calls for her every night. No, but Al tried.

Only one thing is lacking to complete the renascence of art appreciation that is taking Cambridge by storm, only one thing to add to the Fogg Museum, The Hound and 'Horn, the Harvard Society for Contemporary Art and the loan library of pictures recently instituted by the Fogg...a library of music records. Some kind benefactor of the University would give great pleasure and the means of further study to Harvard students if he established a fund for the purchase of the symphonic and chamber music pieces which are now being so excellently recorded. A room in Paine Hall might...
