...somewhat more meditatively good-humored than suits the customary idea of the "melancholy" Jaques, was consistently excellent in his acting of the part as he interpreted it. Mr. Henry Hadfield played the part of the banished Duke with dignity and effectiveness: Mr. Stanley Drewitt, as Orlando, though inclined to speak some-what too loudly and to be--as, for instance, in his challenge for food in the forest,--more vigorous than was pleasing, played his part with skill and a grace that made him appear well even in the comparison with Miss Matthison's acting, which the close connection...
...their opponents, and were generally unable to hit at the opportune moment. One successful bunt was made. Although not spirited, the work of the men in the infield was fairly accurate, as is signified by two runs as against ten hits by the Williams nine.

Arthur Ruhl '99 contributes a story, "The Leading Lady" that is one of the best things he has done. Although some-what long it is interesting and the characters are nicely drawn. "On the Dry Salvages," by Guy H. Scull '98, is a good bit of description. The story "In the Wood-Path," by Mary Allen Rand, is carefully written, but its theme is too often used to be any longer of interest...
