The first number of the Harvard Advocate marks an entirely new departure in the policy of that paper. Not only has it changed from a fortnightly to a monthly periodical, and adopted a new form, similar to that of the North American and Yale Reviews, but has doubled the amount of its printed matter. Heretofore the competition with the Monthly, instead of improving the two papers, had the opposite effect, as not infrequently both were forced to sacrifice the quality of their articles to make up the needed quantity. There was not enough literary activity of the first order in college to justify two magazines. But with the demise of the Monthly a splendid opportunity has been created for remodelling and invigorating the Advocate which its editors have not been slow to seize. In its stories, verse, and editorials, it is now representative of the best writers of the University, regardless of which magazine they contributed to in former years, and is worthily carrying on the best traditions of its past.
The CRIMSON congratulates the Advocate on its first number, and wishes it material as well as literary prosperity throughout the year.
