Haight, the Princeton coverpoint, was the only man on the ice who showed any real ability, and it was mainly due to his efforts the Princeton team came out ahead. As for the Yale team, they were woefully weak in every particular. They apparently knew nothing about checking, and were on the defensive most of the time...
Damning with faint praise all college magazines and the Advocate in particular, Mr. Allen's letter reiterates his review; and asks for articles about football or essays that shall relate the college class-room and literature.

Certainly no man should think of entering the ministry unless religion means much in his own life, but beyond this his own tastes and aptitudes constitute the call to the ministry. He must be sincerely interested in other men, willing to help the, and be helped by them (for the relation is reciprocal) through the religious interest. The work of the minister is exceptionally diversified, and while...
