TOur pride is the finer because we
know the honor is so well deserved
and that it comes from an institution
whose recognition is SO much to be
desired We might reason that the de-
gree was conferred on account of the
Professors accomplishments on the
platform of the Southern Baptist The
illogical Seminary or Colgate or Bay

evidence of his worth is also a living
