Fletcher De Lag lDdrd ROFESSOR WARD! How our hearts thrill When we hear this name! It is a name to conjure with. Professor Ward is an educator. All his life he has given freely of himself,eand what a rich gift it has been! Not in the narrow sense is he an educator. Nu worth- while movement in the community fails to enlist his support. The writer recalls many happy instances of Professor Ward's untiring helpfulness in teaching the Sunday School, preaching for some charge which needed help, speaking for good causes, helping the backward student. One of his guiding principles is, uNC: one is beyond hope in the educational world. Professor Ward is a man. It is his constant insistence that education that is worthy of the name shall he an education that eventuates in character; that brain development without the corresponding spiritual growth is worse than useless; that. be he student, minister, or laborer, only he lives aright who so orders his life that many will rise up and call him blessed because his infiuencc has been a saving bene- ficence upon all whom he has touched. Professor Ward is a Christian gentleman. Not only does he believe that education and development of the spirit is necessary. but he lives what he believes. What a warmth of sympathy is his! Many a neighbor can testify to his unHagging interest day and night in the welfare of his sick neighbors. He is very close to Nature, with her flowers. and brooks, and forests, and he is close to the God those art Nature is. He walks daily as in the presence of the Unseen. His smile bespeaks a heart on fire with love for others. He fulfills Cardinal Newmaifs definition of a gentleman as one who never inflicts pain. He is a gentleman and a Christian. six
