The Cornhill Magazine (Vol. XLI, No. 241 new series, July 1916)

"The Cornhill Magazine (Vol. XLI, No. 241 new series, July 1916)" by Various is a collection of writings that offers a window into life during the early 1900s. The included stories and essays likely show different parts of society during World War I, like battles, right and wrong, and what people were going through. "The Tutor's Story," one of the magazine's highlights, is about a tutor at a university who feels alone but wants to do great things. As a new term begins, he looks back on his life and feels distant from the students. The arrival of Mr. Halidane, someone he used to know, brings up difficult feelings. This part of the narrative explores disloyalty, and the need for friendship. The tutor is torn between his student and memories. This sets the stage for a story about people failing morally during chaotic times.
