...unsettled. In the event of such a camp being opened here before the conclusion of the academic year, members of the R. O. T.

...Commission, of course, has no legislative power whatever. The final decision on all matters coming under its purview must rest with Congress.

...Hillyer's reverie on an Elizabethan May-Day is cleverly contrived, with its pleasant descriptions and its snatches of old songs. Some of the reflections in the earlier part have a modern sound, and are not altogether of a piece with the rest. But we are doubtless to understand that the speaker at the outset is Robert Hillyer, who is only gradually merged, in the course of the vision, into William Shakespere...
