The image shows the right-hand page of an open book, likely a college or university newspaper or journal, dated December 12, 1927. The page contains two main articles.
The first article, titled "Reviewer Finds Hound and Horn Is Plethoric," is by D.B. Durand '25, an Assistant in History, reviewing the second number of the literary magazine "The Hound and Horn." Durand discusses the magazine's features, including two stories and a sonnet, and appreciates the magazine's ability to balance fiction and non-fiction.
The second article, "Lane Explains Work of Library During Respite," is by W.C. Lane '81, the librarian. This piece discusses the library's role during the reading period, considering the increase in demand for books due to the special reading period. Lane outlines the library's plans to handle this surge, including the possibility of placing some books in the third floor, perhaps 250 volumes, and testing various plans to cope with reading period congestion. The article emphasizes the library's need for cooperation from its users and the importance of the library serving all members of the college.
The page also includes a small note at the bottom left corner, which seems to be a transcript or report about an exhibit at the Fogg Art Museum in Cambridge, listing works by Ruskin, Turner, and Brabavov.
