Think of what the poor freshies used to go through in the old days of Delta Kappa and Signa Epsilon. Why, sometimes a fellow would be roasted so his skin would smell like burned steak for a week." "That was when he was burned at the stake," said a chap in the background, and there was a universal dismal groan. "This is some of the Delta Kappa machinery here," the little fellow explained.
That claim takes his teachings out of nature, and permits official and arbitrary senses to be grafted on the teachings." The "Progress of Culture" was delivered as a Phi Beta Kappa oration just thirty years after his first address before the same society.
I left the steamer there and went to the hotel for a while and spent another while at Thebes with a friend of mine." "The excavator!" cried Arlee quickly. "Then you do remember," said Billy with a direct look, "that dance and " "And our talk," she finished gaily. "And your being Phi Beta Kappa. Oh, I was properly impressed! And I didn't know then that you were a regular Sherlock Holmes as well."
A plain, middle-aged man stepped up, read it to himself in low tones, and coupled to it a literary title by which I have been sometimes known. He proved to be a graduate of Brown University, and had heard a certain Phi Beta Kappa poem delivered there a good many years ago.

The gutturals C and G have by some been supposed to have had from the first a soft sibilant sound before E and I; but from the silence of all the grammarians on the subject, from the transcriptions of C in Greek by kappa, not sigma or tau, and from the inscriptions and MSS. of the best ages not confusing CI with TI, we conclude that at any rate until 200 A.D. C and G were sounded hard before all vowels.
Does he really believe that everybody remembers all of his, writer's, words he may happen to have read? At one of those famous dinners of the Phi Beta Kappa Society; where no reporter was ever admitted, and which nothing ever leaks out about what is said and done, Mr.

Address before the Phi Beta Kappa Society of Harvard University. Course of Lectures in Philadelphia. The Degree of LL.D. conferred upon Emerson by Harvard University. "Terminus".
Of these 392 is perhaps the most interesting, as it includes stars of many magnitudes, among which are a red one of the eighth magnitude, and a ninth-magnitude double whose components are 8" apart. Not far from the star kappa we find the spot where the most brilliant temporary star on record made its appearance on November 11, 1572.
