...hardly too much to say that the acting of this comedy at the Museuce is up o the standard of the play. Both play and acting have faults, but neither are failures. While few in the audience were blind to the faults of either, few would change them for fear of making them worse. Mr. George W. Wilson received applause which no audience could neglect from habit, or deny to desert. Sir Charles Pomander does not furnish much tribute to Mr. Mason and a flat part got a flat rendering from Mr. Boniface. Miss Annie M. Clarke...
...Monthly, finally, neither argued nor implied that Harvard is going to the dogs. The extension of her influence, as measured by her gain in numbers, has not corresponded of late to her internal development as we in Cambridge know it. This tendency to stagnation must be checked if she is to hold her own; in other words it must be recognized, analyzed, and the remedy pointed out. The main trouble-and this is the only justification for so frank an exposure as the two comparisons in question-is perfectly obvious. The truth about Harvard is not sufficiently known outside...
...vesper service yesterday afternoon, Rev. Phillips Brooks preached, taking as his text the fourteenth to the twenty-second verses of the third chapter of Revelations, in which the angel of Laodicea is rebuked for being neither hot nor cold. He showed how this passage is a warning to all that are at ease, and say "I need nothing." We must always seek something greater and fuller, always stive for nobler things, and finally, when we have come to deserve God, He will come to us. We should find some task which human powers have failed to do, and which...
...attitude of Cornell relative to the refusal of Harvard and Yale to row her crew is hardly sound to say the least. There are two valid reasons for the refusal. Neither Harvard nor Yale can be expected to enter a three cornered race or to row two races. In view of these facts it is hardly to be supposed that either will forfeit its engagement with the other in order to enter a race with Cornell, particularly when the interest of both colleges and of the country centres upon the Harvard and Yale race more than upon any one event...
Such a collection will be of the greatest service to the university. The great role which the Semitic peoples have played in the history of civilization makes the study of their career a necessary part of a university programme. It is becoming more and more evident that neither ancient nor modern culture can be properly understood without a careful estimate of the Semitic element. The significance of Semitic religious ideas is familiar to us; however we may explain it, the fact remains remarkable that the three monotheistic religions of the world, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, are of Semitic origin...
