...Critic has failed to maintain the policies which formed its original excuse for being; it has to a large extent, ceased "to criticize the University and its policies." While essays on general subjects of national or international interest are unquestionably readable, they do not represent the most efficacious mode of expression of a publication such as the Critic. It is the only undergraduate publication devoted entirely to articles and essays; it is in touch with undergraduate affairs; while comments on the state of the world are best to be found in such magazines as the Nation and its more conservative...

Clearly, this is not a satisfactory mode of procedure whereby a particular distinction is made between men who may declare themselves unable to pay and men who may say nothing at all.

Autobiographies almost invariably contain an apology; some have little else. In Earth Horizon Mary Austin's apology, never explicit, is to be found in her generally defiant tone. "I don't see why it should be so much the literary mode just now to pretend that ideas are not intrinsically exciting and that one's own life isn't interesting to one's self." Hiding her personal pronoun behind her name, she writes of herself sometimes as 'T." some-times as ''Mary." The rising generation may find little to attract them...
