...forthcoming number of the Advocate contains three stories, two of them no better than many other college stories, the third quite agreeably surprising in its conclusion.

If applied only to Freshmen as has been suggested, there could thus be little fear of its meeting with opposition. The idea of a Freshman attempting to clog the administrative wheels of an established course, is rather...
