Us.

Ever since the last issue of The Spike we have been overwhelmed with suggestions and directions guaranteed to improve the magazine. We have been unable to carry into effect many of these suggestions—we have not attempted to remember some page 73 of them—but we hope that the perpetrators of any suggestions that have been acted upon wholly to in part, such as V. B. Willis's, that we should reply to more correspondents, will take as much blame for the innovations as they can, and let us share any honors attached to them. A new feature in this number, only admitted after persistent advocacy of it in certain quarters, is the insertion of advertisements in the body of the magazine; the small number of such advertisements is due to the lateness of the decision to accept them. Other suggestions are still invited, especially those which assume the concerto form of contributions.
