...first day's campaign of the University Liberty Bond Week. In addition to this large subscription, the Junior class has also made arrangements to devote the class fund to the purchase of the Liberty Bonds with the greater part of the funds in the class treasury. The Red Book money was to have been used for the 1919 Senior Album, but present indications seem to show that there will be no Senior Album for two years...
...through teams of four or six men, each Freshman Hall could be canvassed and two dollars secured from each man, a Liberty Bond of $1,000 could be bought.

The Phillips Brooks House money snatchers and the Liberty Loan sleuths have now a clue. No more will the debutant in college live a life of case. With his name and address in black and white his resources will be wheedled from him by the smooth-tongued upperclassman. Under the present Reign of Terror where the cost of living is impossible and Follies' seats...
