...candidates for posts in Asia and the Levant. Men from the University who apply must be between the ages of 21 and 28. Applicants under 21 require responsibility on the part of the company which the latter has found impossible to assume. Older than 28, the applicants seem to grow dissatisfied to be in the same class with younger men. The term of the school is from three to four months. It meets in the main offices of the company, 26 Broadway, New York City. Directors and managers of the company give talks and read papers on phases...
...Ecker '18, manager of the second University football team, were dropped from the College by the authorities yesterday afternoon on account of troubles with the Office in regard to studies.

Some of his descriptions seem extravagant--"amber arms," for instance--but on the whole his language and his metre are sound, and one feels that he has more of "the makings" than some of his more ambitious fellow-bards. Mr. Realers announces, perhaps prematurely, that his heart grows cold; his effort rouses a suspicion that he might glow more warmly in some more suitable medium than he has chosen here...
