Usage:

People formerly studied Greek and Latin customs for their superiority; they thought the Greeks and Latins a faultless race and accordingly reverenced all their works. We, on the other hand, regard the classics as the work of living authors and criticize their faults as we would an author of the present day. Lately classics have been seriously questioned as to their proper weight in mind training. We have no authentic knowledge that the Greeks and Latins were intellectual giants; in fact, if we were dropped down into Greek civilization, we should no doubt look upon their customs as those...

...third Symphony Concert was given last night in Sanders Theatre and was in every way interesting and delightful. The work of the orchestra was as usual almost faultless and the standard which is usually applied to its work, a standard which may fairly he said to apply in this country to the Boston Symphony Orchestra alone, was not a bit lowered. Miss Priscilla White, the soloist, made a most favorable impression. Her voice is of excellent quality and is used with good taste and great accuracy...

Emmons played the best individual game for Harvard. Grant and his two guards made a good showing against their far weightier opponents. At left end Wadsworth was out-classed by Hinkey who played a faultless game and interfered most effectively around his end.

...ease. Our men were able to hit Hartshorne apparently at will, while the Dartsmouth players could get only four singles off Bates' delivery. In the field Dartmouth played a wretched game, Baehr and Eaton being especially weak. With the exception of two errors by Cook Harvard's play was faultless, Hallowell and Howe putting up an especially pretty game. Dean was back at second base, where he played until the sixth inning. Our base running was better than on Monday, but there is still much room for improvement. In the fifth inning Cook made a pretty hit on which...

...strong game at tackle, and Hallowell helped him prevent any gains through the right end of the line. During the first half, however, the latter was off-side several times when the ball was kicked; he must be careful about this. Cumnock looked after the left end in almost faultless style. Alward played left tackle in the absence of Upton; he is strong at some points of the game, but very weak at others. The men back of the line did effective work; there was a confusion of the signals once or twice, but otherwise their play left nothing...
