They do not walk in our ruts of thought or begin exactly where we leave off, but they have a new standpoint of their own." The talk went on for about four hours, when the company broke up. One evening the doctor came in after the Phi Beta Kappa dinner at Cambridge. "I can't stop," he said. "I only came to read you my verses which I gave at the dinner to-day: they made such a queer impression!
But his battle with those forces had begun thirteen years earlier, when he threw down the gauntlet to them in his Phi Beta Kappa oration. Emerson by his writings did more than any other man to rescue the youth of the next generation and fit them for the fierce times to follow. It will not be denied that he sent ten thousand sons to the war.
"There were three men of Babylon, of Babylon, of Babylon." There is what some claim is an aristocracy in American colleges. It is asserted that the leading Greek fraternities are this, and that the existence of Alpha Delta Phi, Psi Upsilon or Delta Kappa Epsilon, or others of the secret groups, is not a good thing for the students as a whole.

"What did you say your name was?" he asked the visitor after he had been set right side up again. "Maxwell, of Fella Kappa chapter," said the latter.
Meanwhile he learned much, studied the coolie question, investigated mine-workings, was entertained by his old college mates mining experts themselves in Johannesburg. There was the letter telling of the bull fight at Zanzibar, or Delagoa Bay, or some seafaring port thereabouts, that broke his heart, it was such a disappointment "it made a Kappa tea look gory by comparison."
Makes me smile now when I think of some of the desperate crises that used to roll up around old Eta Bita Pie like a tornado convention and threaten to engulf the bright, beautiful world and turn it into a howling desert, peopled only by Delta Kappa Whoops and other undesirables.
