(Peter, aside, in a gratified pig's whisper:
"I never was called 'Mr.' before.") Miss Felicity King's essays on
Shakespeare is none the worse for being an old school composition,
as it is new to most of our readers. Miss Cecily King contributes
a thrilling article of adventure. The various departments are
ably edited, and we feel that we have reason to be proud of Our
Magazine. But we shall not rest on our oars. "Excelsior" shall
ever be our motto. We trust that each succeeding issue will be
better than the one that went before. We are well aware of many
defects, but it is easier to see them than to remedy them. Any
suggestion that would tend to the improvement of Our Magazine will
be thankfully received, but we trust that no criticism will be
made that will hurt anyone's feelings. Let us all work together
in harmony, and strive to make Our Magazine an influence for good
and a source of innocent pleasure, and let us always remember the
words of the poet.
"The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upwards in the night."
(Peter, IMPRESSIVELY:--"I've read many a worse editorial in the
Enterprise.")
