...duty to make it unmistakable that we are Catholic and not Protestant." (Cheers. Clapping.) Just as the Martian was deciding that the Protestant Episcopal Church was not Protestant, he was bounced to Boston. He would have found in session, The Church Congress, the proceedings of which were, by comparison, tame. Bishop Lawrence celebrated Holy Communion. Incense was not perceptible. Dr. Kirsopp Lake, of Harvard, said: "Bible and Church have frequently been wrong and their complete consent will prove in the end to have less power than truth and facts, for these alone are valid, authentic and infallible."

...their first games the Andover players overwhelmed the University of Pennsylvania Freshmen 8-1. Due to the fact that the match with them, scheduled for last Thursday, had to be called off on account of wet courts, no direct comparison can be made between Andover and Harvard.
