A lyric.

Let my voice ring out and over the earth,
Through all the grief and strife,
With golden joy in silver mirth;
Thank God for life!
Let my voice swell out through the great abyss
To the azure dome above,
With a chord of faith in the harp of bliss;
Thank God for love!
Let my voice thrill out beneath and above,
The whole world through;
o my love and life my life and love,
Thank God for you'll

HARVARD SHELLS SMASHED.
Two New English Made Boats Arrive
in DiIapidnted Shape.

Cambridge, Mass. Feb. 2S.-Harvard' s
rowing men have been greatly upset all
day because of the condition OF the two
new rowing shells which arrived in Bos-
ton on the steamer Georgian, which sailed
from London February 8. The two shells,
which were designed for use at the New
London races with Yale in June, were an
eight oar and four oar. and on the trip
across they were much battered by high
seas
1t was known last night that the shells
were badly battered, but to-day it de-
veloped that some of the light painting
was cracked badly and that the frames
were twisted. At first il was thought
impossible for the ship carpenters to re-
pair the boats. but this will be attempted.
The boats were built after special models
and were expected to be the best that
the Harvard men have ever used.
