Wilson Honored in Chapel (Continued from pace 1.1 I will continue though his body is in the tomb." Dr. I'inford presented Wilson as a man of great moral courage, i He stated that the eradication of | secret societies from Prinseton | I'niversitv and the breaking away j from the political machine in New !Jersey were earlier evidences of the superb moral courage which reached its culmination in plac ing the League plan before the 'European diplomats; and when I they opposed it. of appealing to the common people of Europe. "This must be characterized as |an act of boundless moral cour age." said the speaker. "Although i.not the originator of the League I idea, for more than two centuries | ago William Penn outlined a league plan. But Wilson was the first great leader of men who plac |ed a plan before the people of the j world."

Karris then read \\ ilson's favorite poem "W'aitin' " by John Burroughs.

"No man." asserted the speaker "ever visited Europe, who was so well received, though lie had con quered nothing but the hearts of the common people of Europe. Mr. Lloyd (ieorge gave this trib ute to President Wilson: "Really, Mr. \\ ilson rises up like a divine figure, far above every other man connected with the great war." Dr. Perisho then quoted the famous statement, "The purpose of the war is to make the world safe for democracy." He read the "Four Points," and the "Fourteen Points," characterizing Wilson's two great declarations of an inter national policy of justice. He stated in conclusion that no nation had ever been given a greater pronouncement of moral standards than W'oodrow Wilson | gave to America. !l!!ll!ll!ll!llllll!ll!!lllllll!!lll!!!!llllllllll!l!!ll!l|||lilli!i!lllli!ll|||!!liilll!l|i||||||||!l!il!ll||l!lll!!l!ll|||||||!ll||||||!i:i:;ililillll|j|||||||||||||||!li!lllll|||||fl!!lllillllllllll!lll|||{!llll|llll!!!!i!l;nii!!!U!! ; SOCIAL AND COMMERCIAL ENGRAVING (Earnlina Company 214 North Elm Street, Greensboro, N.
