I should not trespass on your space if mine were the only case of the sort, but I find that many others have suffered in the same way. I will not presume to suggest a remedy for this, - except more care on the part of the examiner, - but it certainly seems hard that...

Concerning news it is hard to say enough and not too much. The rights of the gossip must be held sacred, and it is unnecessary to trespass upon the domain of the childish. There is still room, however, to tell many things that should secure us the patronage of students and graduates. We cannot hope to excel the Advocate in our treatment of sporting matters; to equal it in this, and to supply a long-felt deficiency in other respects, are chief objects with...
