...acts of worship, and to anybody who remembers what religious people consider worship to be, there can be no difference worth mention, between compulsory performance in one case, and in the other. Compulsory communion has long been given up in England, both for young and old, and people look back on it, now, with horror, as they will here, we have no doubt, in American colleges on compulsory prayer by mocking or sleepy youths...

It is looked upon as an extremely disagreeable thing to prepare one's self for this trying ordeal. Nothing compares with it, except perhaps a visit to the dentist. It has become recognized, however, as an established custom for every class to have their pictures taken, and to this end a photographic committee is selected whose duties, even when ably seconded by the class, are no light burden. Now we ask you, members of '85, is it right...
