...college men who have recently been discharged from the army or navy to continue regular payments on their War Risk Insurance Policies. In the hurry of college life, it is very easy to forget these payments which will mean so much to them later on. If they neglect to keep up the payments now, they will never again be able to take up government insurance at these low rates, because the Government policies are to be issued only to those who served the nation in the army or navy...
...Club produces a play, it may do so only by accepting the kindness of a private club in allowing it to use a stage. It has no home which it can call its own; its scenery and properties after a production either become lost for want of room to keep them, or they must be crowded into the already desperately crowded 47 Workshop Room in Massachusetts Hall.

...proper in any sense of the word. The men returning from abroad or some home camp have no desire to parade as heroes. They all made a distinct sacrifice upon entering the service. They now want to be relieved of this burden. If the people of this country keep their uniformed men from the necessity of hunting jobs and provide them with a means of beginning civilian life without handicaps, they will honor them as no formal war memorial could. As soon as we know definitely that the last drop of American blood has been shed for this...
...time is taken up with work that belongs in the nursery and which is shirked by the high schools. When we have made all other reforms, if the cost of living demands it, we shall, as heretofore, increase the salaries of these instructors. But we cannot afford bribes to keep their noses to useless grindstones. We shall still their whines and sap their shoddy patronage of puppy yellow journals, but let it be clearly understood we appreciate that they are incapable of sacrifice...
