...editor of a college "daily" is to acquire not only this, but also (possibly) a certain amount of monetary assistance; but to be the editor of a mere "Lit" is to obtain neither. Moreover (Mr. Bailey feels) to be an editor of a mere "Lit" is, ipso facto, to inherit a thankless task. He suggests that nobody wants such a magazine; that in its pure form it cannot be self-supporting; and that therefore in the nature of things, it must try to compromise.
