...conditions has brought up a quantity of important questions which demand serious and extended discussion. Perhaps it is enough to say that most of the articles in the present number would not have been at all out of place in the Bulletin; and the Graduates' Magazine can certainly render its readers more important services than that.

No admission is to be charged for the side-shows, but winners of the various events will be given free passes to the Astounding Aggregation of Wonders.
