Rev. Charles S. Maciarland Gives
’ the Closing Lecture to the
High School Irupns
W
At the High School, yesterday morn-
ing, Rev. Eharlea S. Macfarland, the
chairman of the High School commit-
tee. gave his last address to the school
assembly, It being the closing lecture
of the course which has been given
during the year to the students.
While his subject was The Dignity
of Manual Labor he responded to the
request of Dr. Gumbart to say also a
few personal words to the scholars
expressing his pleasure at having been
associated with them and the joy
which he had taken in the work of the
school. lie had a great deal of pride
in tho Norwnlk High School.
Speaking on the dignity of manual
labor llr. Maefurland not only narmly:
praised those who helped the world by}
the work of their hands, but also said
that In so far as their service was
faithful it was upon an equality with
any other work that men might do. The
old distinction between the work of
the hand and the worlt of the head Iai
an entirely false one. Character is
the measure of the personality and in
the same way service is the measure
of one‘s work in the world.
The author of a hook is no more our
titled to gratitude for the good that
the book does in the world, than the
man who bound it. the man who set.
