...next peaceable, gentle and easy to be entreated. The instructions for Christian living, the habits of a gentle man follow on those for physical training. Lastly and chiefly, Christian ethics require active work and good fruits. The instructors for the divine order of life are not complete till they tell a man what to do. Dr. Hale said in his sermon that he had been tempted to compile a pocket testament-like Cromwell's Pocket Bible-which should contain a hundred texts arranged in this order: 1, a pure body; 2, what a man should be; 3, what he should...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- Can you tell me whether the Pierian Sodality have given Mr. Sever the right to refuse to sell tickets for their concert to any one not a member of the University?

...Hull, '89; Barney, '90; Myers, '90, and Henderson, '91, were the contestants. Pillsbury was given first place and Hull second. The tumbling was well done. After some very creditable work, Myers dropped out, leaving Barney and Henderson to work for first place. The judges were unable to tell which was the best man, therefore they called it a tie, saying Barney was the more proficient in somersaults but Henderson the better in connected work. H. L. Phillips, Gr., did some fine club swinging. This event was very "taking," and it seemed a pity that there were no more entries. Barney...
