...expected to show at least in some degree our prospects of success during the remainder of the season. The work that has been done in practice has certainly been earnest, the coaching excellent, and if our team win the championship the honor of the victories will belong to the students and graduates alike. So far as we can see not a stone that may contribute to success has been left unturned. The team is being trained carefully and the graduates have given liberal support both by personal attention and money. If we win both may celebrate the victory as their...
...would seem an injustice to the students that such a thing should be done. College athletics are for them more than for the graduates and certainly more than for the fashionable club man.

...Salisbury tablets are all or nearly all from Sippar, the most famous Babylonian seat of the worship of the sun god. Those tablets whose dates are presented are from the reigns of Nabopolassar, Nebuchadnezzar, Nergalsharezer and Nabonidas. All the others perhaps belong to the ame period. Among the subjects treated are records of the loan of money, tithes and taxes, and offerings to the gods. The great Sippar temple seems to have carried on a large system of lending. One of the tablets exhibited still has the finger prints of the writer. One was a list of families, perhaps slave...
