The Lampoon.

The current number of the Lampoon is devoted chiefly to the war and its effect upon college life. The centre page is a striking picture of the re-christened cruiser "Harvard" and is one of the best illustrations the Lampoon has printed for some time. The verses at the foot of the picture would do credit to the heart of a more ambitiously serious sheet than the Lampoon. The sketch "As Others See Us," shows Harvard as viewed by the Boston newspapers, according to which the whole college is on a martial footing. The rest of the pictures and the short stories are of the usual order. The editorial criticises a very common error in the attitude of the students towards the baseball team.
