...former editor, Theodore Roosevelt '80, writes the leading article of the current Advocate. In vigorous language he urges that Harvard "establish as part of its curriculum an efficient system of thorough military training." A minority of zealous pacificists last year were able, mainly through the CRIMSON to spread the impression, to use Mr. Roosevelt's phrase, that Harvard men were taking the lead the wrong way in having "anything to do with the absurd and mischievous professional-pacificist or peace-at-any-price movements." The CRIMSON'S policy has evidently been reversed, how ever, and the quick organization...
...locale of the piece, which is written in two parts and an introduction, is West 111th street, New York City. The first part contains three scenes each laid on a different floor of a New York boarding house. Each one shows the drama that goes on unnoticed by the outside world.

...result of my few terms at Hebron Academy was that I entered Harvard College in 1853, at fourteen years of age. . . . I look back upon my college education with less satisfaction than any other part of my life. I was not thoroughly fitted. I was too young. The mistake was made, with a well-meant but mistaken view of saving me from the 'dangers of college life,' of boarding me for the first two or three years a mile away from the college--as if there were any dangers or, if there were, as if the best part...
