[edit] Overview

It was started by Mildred Aldrich[2], and it was supposedly 'devoted solely to the "fine arts"'[3]. As a review in The Harvard Crimson said, the aim was to 'give criticisms on books, pictures, music, and acting'.[2]

Contributors comprised Philip Henry Savage, Willa Cather[4], Ralph Adams Cram[5], Louise Imogen Guiney[5] and F. Holland Day[5], amongst others.
