It is with something of a shock that the Vagabond read in yesterday's CRIMSON under the heading of "The Press" a clipping casting the reproach of crescent materialism upon what is in a modest sort of way the clay, so to speak, for the Vagabond's statue, the merchandise, if you must, of his business--namely, the Harvard curriculum. The writer of the clipping raised, figuratively speaking, his hands in well simulated horror at the thought that whereas the University "has a gigantic new Business School" it offers only 5 courses in Greek, while Princeton and Yale take their places on the uppermost rungs of the intellectual ladder giving 12 and 9 courses in Greek respectively. Indeed if this were true, that "even Williams," as the writer puts it, should have more courses in Greek than Harvard, then might the eager Cambridge drinker at the classic spring cry horror and alas, and leave for Williamstown--where he might also enjoy the better climate and the winter sports. But in rear lest such should actually be the case, the Vagabond did a bit of investigating here and there throughout the Yard, and discovered--with so much joy that he took the afternoon and went to the movies--that Harvard offers no less than 19 courses intimately connected with the Greek language and literature, in fact what the a for ementioned clipping calls courses in Greek. So let the writer thereof recall to his mind the old saying which holds that "qui ambulate in tenebris, nescit quo vadit."

When the Vagabond set out today, he had decided to say a few words about the imminent holiday, and was already turning over on his pen luscious phrases in preparation for the more substantial interests of tomorrow. But for that there is now no space, and he will only stop to list the sweetmeats of today's intellectual fare.
