...views were too individualistic and too little concerned with national needs for that. Not Kant but the men who followed him--Stein, Hardenberg, Wilhelm von Humboldt, Fichte, and Hegel--have been official exponents, so to speak, of the mission of Prussia for a regenerated Germany. But it is nevertheless true that the spirit of the whole work of legislative reform which brought about the reconstruction of Prussia after the battle of Jena would not have been what it was but for the influence of Kant's thought. 'Thou canst, for thou shalt'--these words in which Kant epigramatically summed...
Although any forecast of the ultimate strength of the teams which Harvard must face this year is at this time bound to be premature, it is interesting, nevertheless, to survey the outcome of these opponents in their initial contests and to remark the significant points.

Mr. Lodge, in "The Meaning of a Great Library," gives an eloquent appreciation of the value of a great collection of books such as that for which the University...
...true ballade--of a more complicated type, however, than generally seen. Yet Mr. Cummings, for all the limited number of rhymes, makes his poem sound perfectly smooth and unforced. "Sunset," by Mr. Damon, is a brief impression. "To a Child," by Mr. Code has at times an amateurish ring. Nevertheless Mr. Code goes a great way in expressing the typical charm of a child--and it is often these simplest things that are hardest to express...
