who of us have asked ourselves if this year be great or not. Few, if any, have asked the question at all. A minority of those few have looked gap-eyed at the long 'aching prospect and the two months in retrospect and thought that it could not possibly be great: another handful have wearily turned from the question, nauseated by the lacey excetras that embroider such a question. Generalities, pungent with anecdotes, polute our evaluation of the year's greatness or lack of it. Histrionics would have us say, we are couched in the fairness of Fair Harvard. We go out with the boys and with the girls. We drink tall drinks and talk of many things with many words. We are exposed to courses and the railings of erudite men. What more can greatness ask of us? Histrionics would have us swill this down with a satisfied and philo- sophical belch. Yet when we think on it we know that our year must live on a more sub- stantial diet than this. We have come to this, our year, from the little worlds of families and of preparatory high schools. We will wander from this year into other little worlds, into distilled and intense upper-class associations and activities, and from there into the little societies of job, neigh- borhood, and family. But now, in this our year, we stir around in an amorphous muddle of infinite possibilities. This, our year, is a year in which to choose, and perhaps to think on that choosing. We owe University Hall three C's and a D, approximately twelve hundred dollars, our swimming test, and three afternoons of athletics a week. These debts paid, it is catch-as-catch- can and keep-your-dirty-hands-off-my-handle bar-mustache-which-I'll-wear-if-I-choose. After two months, we are only a little embroiled in any special extra-curricular activities. Our buy- ing habits aren't formed, and we can drop a buck where and when we like. It is still to be proved that the lay of the land at Radcliffe is preferable to that at Wellesley, or visa versa.
