...unobtrusive and moderate fashion. The success of the plan is its own justification. Now, the time for small beginnings and meagre accommodations is past. The large and growing body of students demands suitable surroundings. The Annex is waiting, like the Bartholdistatue, for the public to realize its need of a substantial foundation...
...both of the others might be forced to stop. If, now, the work proposed to be done by the Monthly could not be done by one of the papers already established, then we would say "Start the new paper, and let either the Lampoon or "Advocate" die, if need be."

This magazine will be called "The Harvard Literary Monthly." For a long time the need of such a magazine has been evident. While each of the present college papers is excellent in its own field, that field is necessarily a circumscribed and limited one. With all the merits of the Lampoon, the Advocate and the CRIMSON, none of these exist solely with...
