ri .il the parent in size and efficiency. But this -peaks only for leadership in the field of intellectual training. President Angell ' s iire-cminencc here is recognized everywhere, and attested by the award of academic honors by nearly all the great I ' niver-ities of this country, and by mem- bership in many learned societies. Indeed, the president of one of the eastern Univer- sities has expressed his appreciation by say- ing that under this administration Michigan ha l in his judgment, become the most in- fluential seat of learning on this continent. It is much to train men and women in- tellectually, but it is more to inspire to nobility in manhood and womanhood. Doctor Angell can have no more satisfying thought than that which may come from knowing, that in homes on every hillside and in almost every hamlet in this wide land and in many beyond the seas, are growing up men and women with these aspirations, caught from the fires on his altar, and blessed to children ' s children. It is the earnest prayer of all who love this old educational Mother, that he who takes up the task President Angell will lay down, may not only have great breadth and depth of scholarship and large administra- tive abilities, but that he may have that sympathetic Christian character which has made our President so beloved of all the sons and daughters of the I ' niver-itv Again and again has he been called to serve his country in high -tation and well has he met the responsibility, honoring his country and compelling the respect of tin- nations of the earth. But while the nation may honor him for his statesmanship and diplomacy, our tribute is inspired by his service as Our President Doctor Angell has asked to be relieved from the duties of his high office Regret that this time has come is tempered with the thought that this act,,,,, will ' no, him from our mid-t.

Life that treads the path of duty in the freedom that is love. Life that knows the worth of life and shows the wealth of it. Vain the praises that we give him, Vain, unworthy to outlive him. For he recks of praises nothing, counts them neither fair nor fit: i ; He who hears his honors lightly And whose age renews its zest I.o. the maple, snowed upon, is sightly And is s;,p ' runs best. Honor to him. peace unto him, pointing us the way above. Love unto him. long life to him, whom no love of life can move! . Hardly shall we find another When he ceases May God grant thec such another Counselor, O Reverend Mother. When he ceases. Grant us grciving one such other President and friend and brother Ripe in wisdom, just in judgment whom the years revolving prove Leading us the way of duty in the freedom that is love. Victor H.
