...Peabody on Dan. 6 chap. 10 verse, "His window being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem." "The way a man habitually faces is the great point of importance in the church, in the age and in everyone of us. Nearness will not bind, distance will not separate us except as our frontage, our landscape is alike or different. Everyone may look toward other far-off spiritual landscapes, although he have first to cut away from before his window the tangled vine of the perplexing world.

But whether Yale enters or not, college base...

...almost unanimous sentiment was expressed against forming a triangular league with Princeton and Harvard; but a new league, leaving out Dartmouth, Brown and Amherst, seemed to find many adherents.
