As to the propriety of the policy of conferring honorary degre.5 or degrees for otho'.' onslderatlons than pure scholar-hips (which is not unlvorsa'ly approve! by university men) the fol lowl"g q totation from The Saturday Evening Post of Juno 18th is -o the pe'ot: "In genjra1, honorary degiees do represent certain worth, even if not high scho'aitic or other attainments. They may not signify that one is leanud I? tho doe'rine of divinity, but they do serve to indicate th"t one I* a e'ergymin of public efficiency or denominational zea'. They may not signify that one ia learned in either the civil or the canon Jaw, b it they do tend to prove that ono has nude a worthy contribution for tho betterment of men. ?
