...took no text but his subject was "St. Paul's Basis of Morality." When Satan tempted the Lord it was with the suggestion that He was not the Son of God. All temptations must be answered in the strength of this suggestion. The independent power to gratify oneself is the basis of morality. Men too often thin that religion and morality differ and the idea causes much forced religion. Satan is our personal enemy and pledged to destroy us; this we must keep in mind. He hates us because humanity represents God. There is also a tendency to attribute...
Owing to the inclement weather there was an unusually small attendance at the Chapel yesterday and Rev. Edward Everett Hale gave an informal talk on temptations. The great secret of successful resistance of temptation is immediate resistance. Christ did not hesitate but said at once: "Get thee behind Me Satan." The accounts of Christ's temptations are often thrust in the back-ground, yet men are tempted in the same way today.

He declared that vanity and ambition were two faults especially to be avoided by students in a large university, and it was only by the most strenuous efforts that each student could live the life which looks...
...suppose that "H. H. D." had his wish and that all students, simply as such, were treated as above suspicion and examined without proctors. Suppose then that some of them, being tempted by Satan, were to cheat, and to be seen cheating. What I should like "H. H. D." to answer is this: What likelihood would there be, in the present state of college opinion, of such students being sent to Coventry, dropped from the various associations with which they might be connected, and made to feel generally they had disgraced themselves in the public eye? It is all very...
