...have every reason, said he, to feel encouraged. Ten years ago only one out of four students was a member of any church, while now more than half are members of some evangelical organization. With this growth the Young Men's Christian Association has kept apace. Besides more increase in the number of members, one of the great signs of growth is the increased interest shown in Bible study. Year before last there were 3,500 in all colleges who were studying in voluntary classes; last year there were 7,000. Today there are sixteen buildings devoted exclusively to religious...

The students here have been altogether too prone to leave the gaining of victories entirely to the teams without feeling that they ought also to have a hand in the matter. Every one of us has heard time and time again of "Yale sand," "Yale pluck" and even "Yale luck"; yet what have these terms meant? Practically nothing but this, that the Yale supporters have not allowed themselves to conceive...
