THE SOMERVILLE RADIATOR »5 We give the Centre of Vision the honor of prece- dence in our exchange column this number, as it is undoubtedly one of the best magazines which we have received. Quality, not quantity,” is evi- dently its motto. It is small, but compact and well arranged, while its two-tone cover is much to its credit. 't wo simple instructions:— “Model the lights, keep the shadows flat.” “Hnw more with vour mind and less with your hand.” The Radiator, New Haven, Conn., is equally worthy of our first attention. Besides its well- written stories, it is bright and right to the point. The following rules found in the above paper might well be applied to others as well:— HOW TO KILL A PAPER. 1. Do not buy a paper; borrow your class- mate's. 2. Look up the advertisers, and trade with the other fellow. 3. Never hand in articles, and be sure to criti- cise everything in the paper. Be a coxcomb. !. Tell your neighbor he can get more news for less money. lie a tight-wad •a If you can’t hustle and make the paper a suc- cess. be a corpse. —Ex. The Tripod has quite a novel idea in its “Statis- tics column,” and if it is not too personal might prove successful. The E. II. S. Record is to be complimented on its long storv. entitled The Last of the Dervish Raiders.” which came out in its last number. Although the Advance, of the Salem High School, is not a large paper, its subjects arc well chosen and its exchange column is excellent.
