He has published many articles in the Historical Magazines, 7'The Forum, Independent, Gutlook,,' and simi- lar periodicals, besides a-number of pamphlets. In April, IS99, he was licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Lehigh, and in Gctober of that year ordained as a minister of the Presbyterian Church. In 1906 he was elected Moderator of the Synod of Pennsylvania. In 1894 he was chosen a director of Princeton Theological Seminary and in l905 Presi- dent of the Board, which office he held until May, 1915. VVhen Dr. VVarfield retired from the Presidency of Miami University, the Trustees of the Institution conferred on him the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. The same degree was conferred upon him by Princeton in the same year, and by the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania in l9lO. He received the de- gree of D.D. from VVashington and jefferson College in 1902 on the occasion of its Centennial celebra- tion. Among the societies with which he has been actively connected are the American Philosophical and Historical, the International Arbitration, the Sons of the Revolutioni and he has been twice elected a general officer of the Sons of the American Revolution. ' From l89l to l9l4 Dr. Wfarfield ably filled the position of President of Lafayette College. His ad- ministration was marked by great success. Large additions were made to the grounds, many new buildings were erected, the endowment was more than doubled, the annual income increased more than three-fold, the courses of study were enlarged and improved, and both faculty and student body were greatly enlarged. Since Dr. VVarHeld has come to VVilson he has adopted himself admirably to the various activities of our college life. His life here fits in with his own scheme of the happiest state of man, for according to, our President, the truly happy man is a native of Kentucky, an inhabitant of Pennsylvania and on the wayto Heaven. Although Dr. IfVarfield says he is a freshman in our midst, he has already won the love and esteem of every member of his large family, VVe wish for Dr. Warneld a future bright with the fulfillment of every hope just as we realize that he wishes and wills for us a Wilsoii bigger and better than anything we have yet dreamed of.
