...city of Boston two Harvard men have lived within my own time who have admirably illustrated the power of sane trained minds to lead their fellow men to the heights where they might contemplate the beauty and joy of every-day life. They followed different paths. Both were intensely American and both abundantly demonstrated their liberality of mind, their tolerant spirit, and their purpose to help all sorts and conditions of men.

He who has set his heart entirely upon major letters and final clubs is in no better case than he who would win high grades and a Key; and the man who indulges...
...continued to keep the more or less even tenor of its way. All, that is, but the supposably "economic" conference of the nations at Genoa, which, during the past week or ten days, has passed from the potentially sublime to the positively ridiculous. What "might have been" an extremely sane and important conclave is fast deteriorating into a free-for-all diplomatic contest with no holds barred...
