...Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, and, with the foremost of modern French actors, M. Guitry, in the chief role, scored a great success. It was written during the trouble between France and Morocco, and shows the struggle between a militarist father of the old school and a pacifist son with modern ideas. Although the play was written a full year before the outbreak of the present European war, the author foresaw the trend of events, and the play ends with the declaration of war between France and Germany. It will be followed by a short one-act play of a less serious...
...form of a book-notice and in remarkably few words, the writer constructs a very neat case against the war maniacs. There is a certain cold charm in the temperance and lucidity of his style--a charm which we encounter frequently in the best work of the so-called "Pacifist" school, and which is in happy contrast to the bow-wow of the opposite camp.

Then either the Allies will triumph and the German menace will be permanently overwhelmed, or Germany will triumph and her menace will be a menace thrice increased. In the latter case, the utterances of German civil and military writers, as as well...
...Hagler, Jr., '16 defends the apparent change of front of certain present advocates of preparedness under the title, "The Pacifist Armed." He points out that conditions have changed, but he seems to forget that wise men not only change their minds, but that they may,--and in the normal course of events do,--graduate. Mr. Larrabee in an article on college journalism finds that undergraduate publications do not lay inordinate stress upon athletics, and that the student's desire for such reading matter in his less concentrated hours does not show a lack of proportion in his interests; and thrusts...
