The Advocate.

The forthcoming number of the Advocate contains a large variety of on the whole interesting matter. Decidedly the best things in the number are "Roundeles upon Occasions," which have a good deal of imagination and flow, by Robert J. Collier; and "The Special Officer of Station Two," by G. H. Scull. Several shorter bits of verse are rather commonplace and insignificant. "The Teller of Tales," by R. T. Fisher begins very well but leads up to nothing and falls flat. The remaining articles are: Editorials, "Come and Gone," "Sympathy," by F. K. Knowles; College Kodaks, "My Neighbor," by H. M. Adams; "A Memory," by J. F. Brice; "The Perplexity of Quarterback Dixie," by N. Shaw; "The Fool Saith," by P. A. Hutchison; "The Fox that Some one Shot," by E. G. Kinney, and four Book Reviews.
