Further, it has been discovered that the sun has a slower apparent diurnal motion than the stars; that is, the sun, and a star rising at the same time, the star would set before the sun. Careful measurements show that this difference in fine is about four minutes. The motions of the sun and stars differ in direction as well as in speed. The sun apparently moves in a great circle, a circle at the centre of which the observer seems to stand. While the courses of the stars are small circles. This great circle which the sun describes...

There is also a tendency to attribute all evil to influences; this is a dangerous fault. In fighting temptation...
...story would be sufficient to describe the main features of all the Western Trips the Glee Club has ever taken. One company of forty men from college does not differ much from another such company; both have the same light heartedness, both enjoy the same things, both live in much the same way. Yet in the details of these trips-and the details really give them their local character-there is a vast difference. The following then, will be a sort of elaborated itinerary of a journey of about twenty nine hundred miles, with special attention to the points...
