...Student Vagabond" and "The Third Elective" are doing their present mechanical duty in widening the tastes and opportunities of their readers, but beneath their outward purpose there seems to lie a suggestion of a more significant movement. This method of the student sitting in on classes when he wishes and doing as little or as much work as he desires may be a forerunner of an educational system somewhat similar to the "reading method" now utilized in some institutions. Such a system would require only optional attendance to lectures or classes and independent reading and outside work, guided however...
...green days of the Republic, this Constitutional rite was. a solemn thing, freighted with great uncertainty. Last week's vote-counting became an occasion for 40 minutes of horselaughs and whoopee. The outward forms, the ancient lines and cues, seemed as comical to those Congressmen who bothered to attend, as would have been the spectacle of a gentleman in knee breeches and powdered wig riding down Pennsylvania Avenue in a sulky...

Doubtless undergraduates of the college now proving itself so unworthy of them will rebuke its want of comity, its rebellion against one of the noblest forms of sociological effort and the spirit of uplift. In the language of its own discipline, it deserves a "public admonition...
...scoffer persisted, and though but an undertone it would not be suppressed. The bandage slipped, said some; others of more astuteness detected clear proof of Machiavellian schemes involving the use of drugged coffee. But at last the faintest murmur of discord is doomed to disappear, and not from any outward violence but through inward conviction. For, as is announced in another part of to-day's CRIMSON, the not unheralded blind-fold test on behalf of Old Gold cigarettes is to be held today in the CRIMSON building and is open to all comers...
