Honor.

President Hibben of Princeton in
Youths Companion: In certain quar-
ters we hear more of honors than
of honor. of the external marks Of
approval and esteem than of the in
ner nobility of which they are mere
" the symbol. From time immemo-
riol the man whose life has shown
the fruits of honor has himself be-
come the recipient of tangible hon
ors. which his tribe or clan or the
community in which he lives, posi-
blv the whole nation at large, may
have been pleased to confer upon
him
And from the relation that honor
bears TO honors, are found TO
emerge from the more subtle temp
tations of life. Here it is we may
readily wander from the trail and
hopelessly lose our way. There are
many who will sacrifice honor for
honors, who are satisfied with the
outer symbol, the ribbon, the deco
ration. the position of prominence,
or even the applause that dies
away as it falls upon the ear, who
crave the reputation of honor, but

Among the recommendations were the
