...epistle to the Romans, St. Paul struck at the idea that men who wished themselves up to the worship of God must separate themselves from contact with men. We have adopted the Pauline idea: the theory of the church is coming more and more to be that strong character cannot be developed without contact with men, contact which cannot always be with good men.

Then the Yale men would bat him all over the field. Too much censure cannot be given to him for the part he played in the game. If he had made the slightest effort, the Harvard men present would have supported him. As it was they could not be expected to. The Harvard freshman captain, when he found out that the game must be played should...
