From the Marquette registrar, I today learned that the Guepes are carrying their parallel into the classrooms with almost identical grades in identical courses.

President Conant in his annual report made considerable mention of the fine cooperation of the press in devoting generous space to last year's intellectual convention at Cambridge. An informed guide service would be an excellent method of continuing this appeal to the public.

(Kipling does not mention his brother-in-law, Wolcott Balestier, who collaborated with him on the Naulahka, and with whom he quarreled.) The U.
