The current number of the Monthly opens with a review of "Harvard Episodes" by Pierre La Rose '95. Mr. La Rose endeavors to shift the blame for the harm the book is likely to do the University from Mr. Flandran's shoulders, to those of the publishers. It is indeed unfortunate that the book was not called "Wolcott the Magnificent, and other Harvard Episodes," as it is said the author desired.
Noticeable in the number is a scholarly essay entitled "The Idealistic Basis of Thoreau's Genius," by Daniel Gregory Mason 1G.; "Making it Easy for Martha," a somewhat gloomy but clearly drawn story by Arthur Stanwood Pier, and "As Runs the Glass," a rather weird sketch by R. P. Bellows '99.
The number is distinctly representative and of varied interest.
