...present Freshman team is far from a perfect one, as was shown by last Saturday's race, and it is not too late for new men who show good from to become members. Since ten men will probably be sent to the interscholastic run at Andover on November 22, and there are at present only fifteen, out, there is still ample opportunity for new comers to participate in that and other races this fall...
According to the yearly court for 1912, the University Library now numbers 1,664,900 volumes and pamphlets, an increase of 75,851 over 1911. Since its average growth during the previous 5 years has been only 61,065, the above figures show a remarkable development in the part year.

The article is well written, showing careful preparation and a real grasp of the essentials of a peculiarly complex and interesting political situation and for this article alone it would be worth while for undergraduates to read the issue. There is also what seems to me a typical utterance of the stand-patter,--a graceful statement...
...other prose contributions are less noteworthy than Mr. Wright's, both in style and substance, though they are all good exercises in narration or description. Mr. Burlingame and Mr. Smith, writing on very dissimilar subjects, both show the habit of observation and analysis and some ability at realistic portrayal. The description, by the latter, of "The New England Grandmother" is straightforward, simple and homely; so much so, in fact, that the solemn verse quotation with which it concludes has a serio-comic effect which seems hardly in place. Mr. Burlingame's story perhaps depends too much, for its impression...
