An enterprising junior has recently calculated the amount of work which the reader of the junior forensics has to do. There are about 230 forensics handed in. The average number of words in each may be taken at 3500. Many men write 5000 or 6000, and none less than 3000 probably, so 3500 is a low average. The number of words, then, amount to about 805,000. The number of words on one page of the North American Review is about 400. Therefore the reader of the forensics reads an amount equivalent to 2000 pages, or 1 year and 8 months of the North American Review.
