...understand a religion we must know its growth, and the three things we should consider about christianity are its original principles, its promulgators, and its interpreters. Chief among the interpreters stands St. Paul. I shall speak of only one aspect of the career of this wonderful man; his public speeches; and tonight shall take up some of the most striking features of his enviroment...
...real superiority between the two colleges. Take the last intercollegiate games, for instance, where Harvard won by 31 points to Yale's 29 1-2.

In the first inning Trafford got out at second on a daring attempt to steal when only one man was out. In the sixth inning, again, with...
...Farmers' Alliance is a class party and therefore should not be encouraged; Public Opinion IX, 386, 408, X, 610.- [a] It creates antagonism between the classes and injures all, e. g. Granger movement of 1873.- [b] It must prove transitory like the Know-nothing and Greenback parties; Public Opinion IX, 216, 241, X, 217, 321, 610-1, Nation...
