...four sermons during January and February, in St. John's Memorial Chapel. The first will be delivered next Sunday evening, January 16, at 7.30 o'clock. A part of the church will be reserved for students until 7.20, and it is hoped that there will be a large number present...

It is hard to see the advantages of a college legislature, in which imaginary bills, committees on imaginary business, and all the intricate measures of a legislature, are imitated. Indeed, we do not believe that the members of the Union would long maintain their interest in such proceedings...
