A SQUARE DEAL AT HARVARD

It is an unfortunate fact that it is usually impossible for sincere believers in a cause to master an unbiased, judicious view of the situation of which they are a part. On one side lies emotional fanaticism, on the other, indecision. The Scrubwomen affair has provided fuel for much vari-coloured fire which includes the extremely red, the chronic critic of established authority, the opportunist with a personal grudge, and the sincere knight errant of the wronged.

The greater part of this furor deserves a quick exit with no curtain calls. There is, however, a question of morals which is outside of all legality and upon which the most recent champions of the Scrubwomen stand. In Pome short moment when the crusading ardor is not all-powerful, "The Harvard Square Deal Association" might be reminded that any question of morality inevitably means a moral issue, not an absolute moral truth.
