...college owes a word of heart congratulation and thanks to the musical clubs upon their performance of last night. The annual fall concert is generally the first chance that the college has to judge of the work which the musical clubs have been doing and of the standard which they are setting. Their work last night went to prove conclusively that the clubs this year have attained a degree of excellence rarely, if ever, reached in former years.

This is, of course, very unfortunate and the musical organizations are determined that it shall be stopped. In order to bring about the change which...
...June number of the Journal of Ethics the literature on the controversy has grown rapidly. In the July number of the periodical a reply by Professor Royce to Dr. Abbot appeared, and in the same number a retort by Dr. Abbot, which was to have been the final word in the matter was to have appeared as well, but did not owing to a misunderstanding between the Editors and Dr. Abbot in regard to the character in which this last retort should be framed. Dr. Abbot then made his appeal to the President and Fellows...
