15 OAK, LILY AND IVY. Oh wad some power the giftie gie us To see oursehs as others see us ! It wad frae monie a blunder free us, And foolish notion. —Robert Burns. It is in this capacity that the Exchange column finds its usefulness and can do its little part. To offer helpful suggestions and friendly criticisms to other papers may open up to them new and unthought of possibilities of improvement while the criticisims received by the home paper give a corresponding benefit. Although the Exchange column sometimes makes mistakes, still there is no ques¬ tion but that its opinions are of value. The Oak Lily and Ivy wishes to acknowledge the May issue of The Journal Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, Mass, and the June issue of the Cue, Albany, N. Y. and the Bostonia, Boston Mass. We also wish to acknowledge the following Commencement numbers: The High School Aegis, Beverly, Mass. The Argonaut, Mansfield, Mass. The Searchlight, Walpole, Mass. 1 he Gazette, Lynn, Mass. The September number of The High School Herald, Westfield, Mass., has also been received. We wish to compliment yov on your promptness in issuing your paper. Your literary department is very complete, while your Alumni column is written in an unusually novel and interesting way.
