The University Unit is an excel lent college paper. It is well ed ited and neat. The Polytechnian, Fort Worth, presents some interesting reading- matter. The paper is well edited and neatly arranged. T\\qReflector, Starkeville, Miss., comes to us in a neat form. It is a creditable paper, and we are glad to receive it as an exchange. “Vagaries of an Alumnus,” in The Walking Leaf, Montour Falls, N. Y., is a very creditable poem. Besides, the paper contains inter esting papers on various subjects. The Orange and Blue, Auburn, Ala., is a semi-monthly paper, which devotes much space to the interest of athletics, We are glad to welcome it among our ex changes. The Lake Breeze, Sheboygan, Wis., is full of High School hap penings. Much space is given to football, in which this team has been successful. The Breeze is always welcome. The Students Herald, Manhat tan, Kan.j can boast of being the only weekly paper on our ex change list at present. Each week it brings out new incidents connected with college life. The Athenaeum, Morgantown, W. Va., contains an excellent paper on “An Unconquerable iiace;” also “A Sketch of the Life and Works of Dr. A. G. Purinton.” It is a well edited paper, but we think it can be im proved by the addition of an Ex change Column. Mission House Aerolith, Frank lin, Wis., can boast of being the only exchange thus far received that is printed in both English and German. The paper is well arranged and stands high as a college paper. The Weatherford Collegian, of Weatherford, contains an instruc tive paper on “The Process of Creation,” and college news in general. Its exchange column, though as yet short, promises success. “A Boy’s First Week in Col lege” in Ids Barometer, Oregon, is typical of many a boy’s “first week” at college. The Barometer also contains a beautiful poem on “Oregon.” It is a well edited paper throughout. The Anchor, Holland, Mien., contains well written articles on “Through the West on Wheels” and “England and the Trans vaal.” The editorials are also well written. In fact, the paper is a credit to its school. Mrs. T.—“It must have taken Daniel Webster a long time to compile the dictionary, don’t you think so?” Mr. T.—“Daniel? You mean Noah, don’t you?” Mrs. T.—“Now don’t be silly. Noah built the Ark.”—Ex.
