...between professor and student. As one of our eminent Harvard graduates has said, "It is worth all the school's cost if the long discipline brings each one of us into living touch with one real instructor, one whose word reaches the soul and creates that hunger of the mind whose satisfaction is our education." Such friendship is of mutual benefit, for it ennobles the student and it humanizes the instructor...
...should be borne in mind that there are two points of view from which to look at this matter of the reception of a guest. So far we have considered only that of the receiver; but there is also that of the received. Each should aim to please the other by self-sacrifice and thoughtfulness. The guest, no less than the host, is under obligation at any friendly party. For several years past Yale has been a better host and a kindlier visitor than Harvard; we have been the considerate half of all the parties--both those at New Haven...
...disparaging sense. Now it is not to be doubted that austerity in America is a quality rare enough to appear to be "ex machina."

I believe Yale has better material than Harvard and ought...
After football there will still be the emotional ministrations of Dr. Sunday. Brightening the corners at the Tabernacle and perhaps darkening the corners of the mind, that interest will wax and wane. After that we know well what great thing will come. It will be Christmas, and the holly and misletoe, and the joyous annual exchange of gifts. No human interest like Christmas! Once it did not exist at all in New England! It was necessary to create it. It was created, and it filled the bill. It came in response to a demand of the human heart. There...
