The Advocate.

The third number of the Advocate contains six stories and four unusually good poems. The sonnet, "To Omar," is marked by a beauty of imagery and a musical rhythm which give it rank as one of the best poems the Advocate has published for a long time. "The West Wind," by A. D. Ficke, "The Light of Summer," by Roy Pier and "October," by "L. W." are all good; the first two, at least, are above the average verse of college magazines.

The stories in the issue are not particularly interesting; "His Good Example," by L. B. Cumming, is the best of them. None show any marked strength and originality of plot, or especially skillful handling of such plots as they have.
