Communication

(We invite all men in the University to submit communications on subjects of timely interest, but assume no responsibility for sentiments expressed under this head.)

[Note: Ordinarily the CRIMSON does not print anonymous communications, but the one below is so very original in its spelling, punctuation, and grammar, that it is almost a classic, and appears worthy of publication. Moreover, it proves that there is someone besides the printer who reads our editorials].

At Last an Appreciation!

Editor of the CRIMSON:

The ones that deserve the most credit at college are the fellows that go there to grind their way through I cannot see what good it does any one whether at college or not whether a foot ball game is won, it does not do anyone any good. There is too much poverty in this world and too many heroes, that find, it hard to grind a existence to se so much of this foolishness of calling a foot ball kicker a hereo only because he can kick a foot ball good. It must be discouraging to many worthy students to look at papers and see nothing about a college except about a lot of overgrown boys mauling each other and called heroes I thought a hereo was one that did some thing unselfish for his fellow man. A ADMIRER OF THE GRIND
