...institution from the men who compose it. The man who is ignorant of any legitimate phase of the life cannot, then, be a typical man; the student who has never been to the chapel exercises or who never goes to our athletic games is in no way fit to discuss Harvard religious matters or Harvard athletic methods with the outside world. And this is unfortunate because this same outside world is often misled and misinformed on just these matters. Others cannot know and appreciate the greatness of the University till we students know and appreciate it ourselves. From these words...
...change Home Rule is not advisable. (a) It would weaken the Empire, (1) Causing division between Great Britain and Ireland. (2) Causing division between Ulster and the rest of Ireland.

When he speaks he always impresses his hearers with his own manhood. His manner is in the style of conversation and his words are always spoken at the congregation rather than over their heads. We bespeak a hearty welcome from the students...
...varsity men of the various teams are now well accommodated at 13 Bow street. The whole ground floor is given over to them. The two rooms on one side are used as club rooms where the men can assemble to pass time as they see fit. A third room is used as a dining room, which at present seats all the men now at the 'varsity eleven tables. The fourth room is now unoccupied, and in case of need all the 'varsity teams can be boarded at the same time. Upstairs are a couple of club tables, which pay almost...
