When the great python of war began
to gorge itself upon the bloodshed in
Europe, the college papers decided to
keep their pages free from all direct
reference to the issues at stake. But
that decision was by no means unan-
imous, for many of the undergradu-
ates felt that silence at such a time
was only cant They felt that no
subject should be put beyond the pale
of discussion death, nor love;
neither the pelI-mell carnage of physi-
cal bodies nor the CHASTITY breakdown
of all the moral and spiritual struc-
lures of our civilization. In protest,
then, the following appeal was sent
to the editor of one of the serious
papers, and 1t probably expresses pref.
ty we'll the desire for that breadth
and beam of intellectual apprehension
which is Characteristic of American
undergraduates: -@*
ITO the Editor of the Harvard IL
Illustrated Magazine: 1t has been in
my mind for some time to ask you
why you gentlemen who control the
undergraduate press at Harvard per
sist in your silence on all matters re-
lating to the great war. 1t seems IN
accountable that two thousand keen
and enthusiastic youths should have no
interest in this world struggle, and
it seems equally impossible that they
should not be able to reflect on that
mighty turmoil without dangerous heat
or ineffective conclusions. / know
that President Wilson has asked the
nation to strive after an ideal of neu-
trality, but he could hardly have ex-
pected us to give up all individual
study of the causes, all comment on
the conduct. and all speculation on the
results of a revolution so desolating

The little newsboy looked on in dis
may as the five men (evidently dis
corning the plot produced their money

copies.

The literary paper of the University
is the Monthly" which has been aptly
called the Atlantic Monthly of Har-
ward" 1t endeavors to preserve the
best expression of undergraduate
thought. Each number contains sew
eral good stories, possibly an essay
and three or four poems. The first
edition appeared in 1894 When Nor
man Hapgood, now editor of Harper's
Weekly, and William Vaughan Moody,
author Of the Great Divide" were on
the Monthly board, the Laodicean
Club was formed in which they were
leading spirits. The club was named
after the Laodiceans, Greek people
Of Asia Minor, who were noted for
their lackadaisical indifference. In

There is one little story that is
