him to account does not speak

They fail to recognize the fact
that for years he has borne loyal
witness to the power of Chrsts
gospel for a sin-Stricken world. and
has been an interpreter of Christian
truth to thousands who have throng-
ed his church and many thousands
more who read his books.

What has been his offense? That
he dareS to think and that he dareS
to express truth, not in the cold form
of a desecrated dogma, but in the
living words that strike to the heart
Of human doubts. human needs and
human aspirations"
Nearly 1900 have already applied
for admission to Princeton next
year, and only 600 are to be receiv-
ed, DR.. Hibben stated at the annual

life.
Mr.. Whites explanation, in the form
of a statement. follows:
Warned by Doctors.
Upon my return home / feel that
some statement from me is due to my
friends concerning my absence from
home and business for the past four
months
For weeks prior to January IL I had
been afflicted by extreme nervousness,
accompanied by insomnia, and my con-
dition had become such that I was
warned by my physician that it was
absolutely necessary that leave busi-
ness and its usual responsibilities for
time, under penalty of taking a per-
manent departure. 1 felt that it would
be absolutely impossible for me to cut
myself on from my business by taking
an ordinary vacation. Accordingly. as
a measure of securing what seemed 70
me at the time to be the only remedy
Tor desperate case, 1 decided to leave
Tor a time. in the effort to regain both
physical and nervous strength
During my absence / travelled and
also worked in several cities and 40
improved In health that l had start
ed toward home from California when
| became i'll at Portland. Ore. Where
l had secured employment, intending
to remain there a short time.
Destitute at No Time.
While 1 earned money by working
from time to time, / was at no time
destitute. as found that my knowl-
edge of the electrical and hardware
business opened the door Of employ
ment at any place.
Il have returned completely re-
stored to health and, in view of the
circumstances, | trust that my friends
may pardon the concern which my
unexplained absence may have occa-
stoned them. For the consideration
and kindress shown by them, both
to my family and to myself, / am
unable to express my deep apprecia-
tion. The course which 1 took was
planned when l was very i'll and
when / felt that even another day
of delay might bring such a break
down as would place me past possf-
bility of recovery"
