...interested to hear some facts bearing on your editorial with regard to student waiters at Memorial Hall. From your purely speculative treatment of the subject it is evident that you are unaware of the existence of a certain other dining club - a fact sufficiently accounted for by the confining nature of your editorial duties, yet one which it would have been very well worth your while to have known before expressing opinions which, as you will readily see in a moment, appear, in view of its existence, at once practically unsound and from a sentimental point of view, undesirably rude...
...rather an ambitious effort to put this story into rhyme or even into print, for there is nothing extraordinary in it either in point of conception or treatment.

In order to write what he did, and as he did, it was necessary to be a master of style...
...opportunity for it is offered as freely as is at present justifiable. The three years course can not be opened under general conditions until it is proved desirable by a very general excess in the College of work done over work required. While the Faculty's present treatment of the questions connected with the Bachelor's degree is admitted to be provisional, it is certainly just, and deprives no man of educational privileges to which he is fairly entitled...
