FRANCE HONORS EDWARD TUCK

News has been received from Paris that Edward Tuck '62 has been appointed an officer of the Legion of Honor. The appointment was made by President Falliéres on the nomination of Premier Raymond Poincaré. While the memory of Mr. Tuck's benefactions to Dartmouth and New Hampshire are fresh in our minds it is illuminating to learn of his good works in Paris where for the last twenty years he has been foremost in all charitable enterprises and has been a prominent factor in strengthening the friendly feelings between Americans and Frenchmen. As an art collector, particularly of the Napoleonic age, he has done great service to the history of that period. Great satisfaction is expressed in Paris at the honor conferred on Mr. Tuck.
