Second, he must not take something for nothing, but must pay full price for what he does...

...allegorical poem which impresses one as a bit too obscure in meaning and too eccentric in its metrical form. "The Day of Prophecy," by H. W. Holmes '03, the other contribution in verse, is spirited and has a brave ring. A happy editorial on the strength-test insignia question and a group of book reviews complete the number...
