An Interesting Decennial
Record.
Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, Yale ’89,
has just published the Decennial Record
of his class. The book contains the data
in a very complete form, which such a
book should contain, the Secretary hav-
ing been quite unusually successful in
following up even the most elusive mem-
bers of the Class. Aside from that, his
own editing of it and especially the his-
tory of the Decennial meeting gives to
it its own character, which it would be
quite rash to attempt to describe in
ordinary literary terms. It cannot be
classified because it is entirely of its own
class. It makes exceedingly good read-
ing. The book has over 130 pages and is
bound in cloth. There are two illustra-
tions.
Notes.
Arthur Colton, ’90, has a story, which
is not a bad story and which has, of
course, some nice touches, in the cur-
rent number of East and West. It is
called “Block Pond Clearing.”
Mr. Colton has just published,
through the Doubleday & McClure Co.
a story, “Bennie Ben Cree,” which will
be reviewed in a later issue.
The press notices of “Boys and Men”
have been almost universally favorable.
The Boston Herald is particularly strong
and has this sentence:. “While the story
has the spell of college atmosphere all
the way through, its power lies pecu-
liarly in the author’s analysis of men.”
Andrew Carnegie on Trusts.
A director of the Standard Oil Com-
pany has recently published in the Jn-
dependent an article declaring trusts to
be good for the workingman. To the
May Century, Andrew Carnegie of the
Carnegii Company, which rivals the
Standard Oil for first place among the
world’s great corporations, will con-
tribute an essay taking the same ground.
In this article, which bears the title
“Popular Illusions about Trusts,’ the
great steel manufacturer argues that the
evils of trusts are generally self-correc-
tive; that no trust can live long unless
it secures a virtual monopoly of the com-
modity it deals in; and that “the only
people who have reason to fear trusts
are those who trust them.” In the same
magazine “The Real Danger of Trusts”
—their menace to the independence of
the individual and the state—will be
pointed out in an editorial.

Notre Dame of Paris.
[From the TenEyck prize essay of Arthur Hunt-
ington Gleason.,]
It is the great glory of architecture
that to no imperial genius belongs the
credit of the finest work. The poem is
thrown off at white heat by the lonely
rhapsodist. The cathedral was built as
the coral reef is built. It was a splen-
did piece of anonymous work, the slow
accretion of hundreds of laborers, in-
dependent and equal, with all the years
of the future thrown open to them.
They elaborated the veriest trifle and
toiled over each detail, for work to them
was joyous. All Paris built. Indeed,
there can be no true architecture unless
the nation labors. The seven lean cen-
turies that have followed those years of
superb production prove that noble
structures may not be made by a few
hired specialists.
The Cathedral of Paris is an embodi-
ment of the building spirit of the times.
It is no isolated wonder, the record of
a forced enthusiasm. But, just as pure
religion and undefiled is this, that a man
live out daily the high aspirations of his
Sabbath moods, so the constructive style
of the cathedral was one with that of
shop and home. Paris was filled with
the pointed arch. The saints that walk
in long procession over that portals of
Notre Dame graced each household of
the land. Every meanest alley had a
“Gothic profile.”

New Haven as a “Dog”.
[Burton J. Hendrick, Yale ’95,in New York Evening
Post.]
‘From the nature of the case, the city
of New York can seldom be the “dog.”
The “dog” is usually a provincial town,
not too small to discount its value as
a theatrical critic, and not too large
to make its judgment final. Certain
New England cities of the first class are
in high favor at the present time. New
Haven, Conn., for example, is an ideal
“dog.” It is so near to New York that
it 1s an easy matter for a metropolitan
company to slip down and hold a dress
rehearsal under the guise of an initial
performance, so far that the denuncia-
tory cries of the gallery gods, in case
of failure, do not readily penetrate to
upper Broadway. From all of which the
uninitiated will have grasped the idea
of what the “dog” is, and what that
piquant phrase, “trying it on the dog”
signifies. The “dog” is a small town,
with good theatrical facilities and some
though not acute theatrical taste, which
the manager selects for the trial perfor-
mance of a new play. It is first, and fre-
quently the last judge of the forthcom-
ing drama. It is the histrionic Rhada-
manthus, before whom the leading mana-
gers and actors of the day do abject
reverence. A play that cas not un-
animously approved may still be success-
fully staged in the metropolis, but in the
main the “dog” settles the matter. It
is essentially the devourer of bad plays.

In Spring.
In the Spring, a young man’s fancy
Lightly turns to thoughts of love,
And a maiden thinks of dresses
As she should of things above.
But as time and seasons pass them,
Each one growing nearer old,
There is no more vital problem
Than to keep from catching cold.
