...progress. There may have been a time when his doctrines would have won adherents; happily it is past, and they have been delegated to the dust bin where repose other curious and outgrown theories the hampered and restricted our daddies. College is a place to loaf, to invite the soul, to complete an education in athletics, to form pleasant friendships, to take the first steps in sociology, to relieve the mind of those traditional notions that restricted the comprehension of the new art, the new politics, the new freedom. Study is alien to the college; it would intrude on time...

...affair of the heart in very different vein. He, too, is subtle and sensitive, bat not a bit serious, and he makes us feel that his irresponsible hero is an actual human, attractive, normal Harvard undergraduate, a trivial person, no doubt, but far more appealing than the disembodied soul who suffers through the story by Mr. Wright. Mr. Paulding has not made an important contribution to American fiction, but he has written easily the best thing in the Monthly, which leads one to hope that he will keep on writing college stories with the same delicate and playful touch...
