THe Golden Rod ‘For Friendship’s Sake.” The ‘‘Harvard Illustrated Magazine came among our exchanges. The paper is certainly excellent, but somewhat beyond High School students. The tasty cover design of the “Minute Man” adds much to the attractiveness of the paper. Among our best exchanges this month, werc;- thc “Premier,” “Calendar, and the Oracle” (Ban gor, Me.). The “Senior” contains splendid material for a paper printed every two weeks. The “Golden Rod” has received this year a large number of excellent exchanges. We hope that in the future, each and every one will remain an exchange of our paper.

The Golden Rod - CAUSE EXCHANGES Q :J1 WE HAVE ‘RECEIVEJ3 SEVERAL KNOCKS ABOUT THE CUT FOR EXCHANGES RECENTLY HLRES HOPING'THE RESUt-T WILL BE SATIS- FACTORY THE CAUSE 15 EviOENT The literary department of the “Argus” is espec- ially good. We were glad to receive a copy of the “Herald” (Westfield High School). Having attended that school for a short time the exchange editor naturally feels interested in its paper. The cover and also the cuts of the Medford “Reveiw” are very attractive. We were glad to receive again a copy of the Sa- gamore.” The exchange column is an excellent feature of the paper. Since the last issue of the “Golden Rod,” a copy of the “Fowder Horn” was welcomed with the other exchanges. The paper was very interesting and we hope it will continue to be one of our permanent exchanges. The “Review” (Lowell) contains an excellent exchange column,— well filled with comments and jokes. The cuts also arc very suggestive. The literary department of the Holten” is very interesting. The “Red and Black” is a well-arranged paper. The Oracle” (Manchester, N. H. is as interest- ing as ever, and contains a well written story
