...wise national policy which is overwhelmningly supported by the people (for very few Democrats are willing to be called free traders), is greatly to be deplored. The colleges cannot educate the mass of Americans to their doctrines, but they will alienate the university from the practical, thinking heart of the people, and displace it from the esteem and confidence in which it ought to be held by all Ultimately we believe the 'theory" will conform to the 'condition.' American colleges must be entirely American. There must be a harmony between college teaching and the sober purposes and practical sense...
...place of Rev. Thomas G. Milsted who was unavoidably hindered from being present. The text chosen by the speaker was from the Epistle of paul to the Colossians, chapter I: 16.

Our care must be not to let this feeling of contrition weaken or turn us away. If, in the depths of our discouragement...
...bring the teachers and students closer together, and to give an opportunity to talk over the deeper issues of university life. The great trouble here at Harvard is the lack of "team play" among the right minded. There are many who have the best interests of the University at heart, but their efforts are less successful because they lack union. As time goes on, the tendency to deeper thought acquires greater strength. This is shown by the increase, this year, in the attendance at the services at Appleton Chapel, and by the greater receptivity and responsiveness of the students present...
