The Advocate.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Advocate of June 14 opens with the announcement of the election of F. H. Cummings '95 as business editor. The editorials are indifferent except the last one criticising the reviews of the CRIMSON. This is above the Advocate's standard, being to a slight extent interesting.

"Harvard Types" is continued by Louis How in an overdrawn and at the same time rather weak sketch of "Harry Whooper." It is to be hoped that those outside the college who read the "Types" will not think that they really do describe typical Harvard men. There are three "College Kodaks." The first and last are poor, while the second is very pretty. "My Wall Paper" is a pleasant story by Knoblauch. "A Long Time to Wait" is one of the best things that Chamberlin has written this year. It is a rather pathetic story and is very well done. "Cutting The Leaves" is a poem without much merit. A pretty couplet is "Uncut Pages, begun and ended with liltings learned from olden time." "Under the Profile" is another of Louis How's stories. It is long and at times interesting. The end is flat. "Hal Longworth," is a story of the sensational type, the hero dropping dead at the end in a very sudden and startling manner.

"The Sofa Cushion" by John Green Jr. is the best story of the number. It has a good plot and is simply and pleasantly written. As a whole the Advocate is rather better than usual.
