The Vagabond returns from vainly trying to incite a revolution in Nicaragua to find those greatest of academic blasphemies, the examinations, apparently over. The r. p. m. of Nicaragua is not what it used to be. He returns from gun-running in the face of the marines to a quiet corner in Sever 11 and the drone of the immemorial past. It was, however, too late to break into print on the occasion of the seventieth birthday of Professor Whitehead last Saturday. To one to whom time conceptions are merely mental gymnastics, age a philosophical paradox, it is almost impertinent to offer congratulations. A certain kind of homage is perhaps more appropriate to one who undoubtedly is one of the greatest twentieth century thinkers and teachers. Yet, universities seem always to assume the right to boast of the men who make them great.... Lectures of interest for today and tomorrow follow.
