...discussion and strong esprit are most necessary is law. And although the Medical and Business Schools have been provided with every facility to encourage group spirit through intimate contact between colleagues, there has been no effort to afford the Law School similar advantages. Conditions have, in fact, long been cogent, and the complete enjoyment of relationships natural within the profession have been impossible.

His life to the newsie was the great American legend; and every newsie could outline its cogent paragraphs: ran away from home in Philadelphia at the age of eleven to sell newspapers in Manhattan; back to Philadelphia to sell soap for his father; into the towns of eastern Pennsylvania where he came to be known as the Wonder Boy Salesman; finally to Chicago, where he peddled more soap, then baking powder and then, because he found...
