...prove that we are on the side of good order; that we are filled with earnestness and de termination in our daily life. There can be no better criterion of the spirit animating the men of Harvard than the numbers seen at morning prayers. If indifference is to rule, then the present system must fail; if earnestness and determination are to be the future characteristics of the Harvard spirit in athletics and in every other field, we must soon see a marked increase in the interest of the students in the chapel services. If there are men at Harvard...
...often undeveloped, and entirely new to this kind of thing that, without knowing their strength and endurance, it is hard to tell what to do with them. Then, too, besides being ignorant of the physical capabilities of the men, the captain and coach are, as a rule, unacquainted with their dispositions and tendencies-qualities which are as essential to a good oar as are the physical ones.

...deal of justice that these degrees offer no criterion by which the merits of the recipients can be judged. When we think, however, of the vast differences which prevail in standards and in methods, we must be convinced that it is impossible at present to lay down any common rule by which degrees are to be awarded. But it is very surprising to find sometimes that degrees of the same grade granted by the same college do not always mean the same thing. This is true of the degree A. M. given by Harvard. A graduate of the college...
