The present number of the Advocate returns to the College Kodaks with no particular advantage from the reader's point of view; for many of these Kodaks unfortunately fall rather flat and miss the point they are supposed to have. In the present case the other articles are fortunately more interesting, except that six of the seven editorials treat of football matters, which now seem somewhat old.

Among the prose articles are several which deserve praise. "A Perennial Story," by Louis How, tells of the hard experience of a man who comes to college with a great longing to make friends, but who fails through his natural timidity and fear of intruding. His loneliness and the disappointment of his hopes are well described; and the author rather skillfully enlists the sympathies of the reader.

"Drifting: A Sketch," by E. G. Merrill, is a pretty and suggestive bit of writing; while W. C. Train's "On the River" contains some excellent pictures and falls little short of being very successful. Though as a Harvard Type "The Moody Man" seems hardly true to life, his somewhat exaggerated character is very well drawn by E. G. Knoblauch.

"Feminology" is based on rather a novel conception, and would be interesting if only the idea were better worked up. The number also contains an amusing dialect story of "Henry Clay's Conversion," by J. P. Warren.
