The Advocate.

There are several stories in the Advocate appearing today that are decidedly above the standard. The first story of the number is "Wakianla," an Indian story by Lee Hager. It is not a commonplace story and is very pleasing. It is a love story, but it is well worked up and keeps up the interest to the end. "Their Wedding" by Edward G. Knoblauch is a story of the rivalry of the two belles of a country town. It is amusing though very improbable. A "Triolet" by H. H. is poor. The "College Kodaks" are very good, best of all is the fourth. The second and the last are the poorest. "The Artistic Temperament" by Townsend Walsh is one of the best things of the number. It is a story of a troup of wandering actors and is told in a bright and entertaining style. "The Sudden Conversion of Deacon Enoch Grubb" is rather weak and flat. There is not much of a plot and the form is not good enough to make the story interesting reading. "Reaping Tares" by H. H Chamberlain is a very pretty story. "Sleep" by C. G. Alexander is a piece of poetry rather above average college verse.
