nurtured at this old and venerable shrine. Hardly a forward move of these four years but bears the impress either of his initiative or of his wise and mellow counsel. As truly of him as of that other great bui lder of the Old College, Sir Christopher Wren, may it be said, Si moniinientum reqiiirls, circiimspice. His visits to the old College, whether in an official capacity or on occasions of visits of national celebrities, are perennial sources of delight to the entire college body; and when at the urging of President Chandler, he says a few words in Chapel, his admirers like to think they can discern in him touches of the beauty of mind, the grace of person, and the sweet reasonableness the Southerners associate with the Washington and Lee of the years when the aroma of the life and death of the great Lee still hung about it. Dr. Dillard ' s long and honorable career has been crowned with signal marks of appreciation from the world of letters and education. His Alma Mater has made him Doctor of Letters; the Tulane University, the scene of his active academic labors, has given him the degree of Doctor of Laws; the University of the South, the Southern educational institution of the church of which he is a devoted member, has conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Civil Law. But Dr. Dillard ' s place in the hearts of all William and Mary folks is independent of all honors and degrees, wear he them never so worthily. They love him for himself, and for his love for the Old College. The Board of Editors wish him many more long years of all he so eminently possesses: All that which should accompany old age, As honor, love, obedience, troops of friends; and is proud to dedicate the 1922 COLONIAL ECHO to James Hardy Dillard, Rector of the Board of Visitors.
