...extreme head of the class, exclaiming that this was his proper place. This success encouraged denial, and he renewed his efforts. At the end of the second quarter, the class was again mustered, and Mr. Emery stood before it, when, after a deep silence, he said: "Daniel Webster gather up your books, and take down your cap." As the boy tremblingly bayed, the teacher added, "Now, sir, you will report to the teacher of the first!

Her men are working hard and if, as he says, Moffat, their wonderful kicker, who is now a post-graduate, should consent to play, their team would indeed be a strong one, and one which our eleven will have hard work to defeat. His opinion of Yale is clearly partisan. But even he admits that Yale is playing an active game and the large scores...
