MR. B's TRIBUTE Great teachers, like poets, are made as well as born. The finest qualities do not spring full blown, but must be tempered and wrought out upon the anvil of experience with patient and soul searching labor.-For near a score of years Chick Sellers and I have lived and worked and played together. I have watched with affectionate pride his growth from ,prenticeship to mastery, from carefree young manhood, through joy and sorrow, to rich maturity. Memories throng almost too poignantly to be spoken-of his skill and sportsmanship on the playing field, his hearty comradeship with men and boys, his courtship, his happy marriage, the hospitable home he and his bride created, his love for his children, the tragic death of one, his own patience under suffering. He had strength, courage, independenceg affection, sensitiveness, loyalty. He never dodged an issue, nor kept silence when he should speak, nor refused to let others speak as freely. He sometimes doubted his powers but never ceased to exercise them. His was the strength that accepted leadership willingly and then outran itg that put loyalty to an institution above personal regard. He loved his family with touching devotion, and his friends like brothers. He drew to him- self not merely many friends but many kinds of friends--the shy and scholarly as well as the assured and athletic. He knew the heart of a boy. Whether in the classroom, on the athletic field, or in the quiet of his study, it was char- acter he taught. Boys could not face him and be falseg they trusted him with thoughts they scarcely dared confide to themselves. Generations of schoolboys will be forever truer because he lighted their path. An understanding colleague has phrased the thought that fills our hearts- C. E. S. VVrite him as strong and loyal, just and trueg Write him as wise, and write him yet again As simple, clear and upright through and throughg Write him as one who loved his fellow men. The many lives he touched, the boys who turned To him and came within his friendly reach Loved his fine courage and warm heart, and learned From him the lessons a great soul can teach. Here on the ground he trod, the scene he knew, - The game goes on of which he saw the goalg We feel his spirit where his spirit grew And broadened ever toward its perfect whole. K. M.
