MRS. EDWARD TUCK PROMOTED IN FRENCH LEGION OF HONOR

To Mrs. Edward Tuck of Paris, formerly a resident of Concord, N. H., has been accorded the signal honor of promotion in the French Legion of Honor. Announcement of the honor conferred upon Mrs. Tuck was made in the same issue of the Journal Officiel which announced the promotion of Mr. Tuck and is said to have been an unprecedented occurrence. So far as is known this is the only instance of a husband and wife being thus honored. There are in the Legion of Honor only eight women "officiers" and no foreigners except Mrs. Tuck.

Throughout many years, and particularly during the World War, Mr. and Mrs. Tuck have been conspicuous friends of France and have been generous benefactors of many charitable causes assisting the French people. Mr. Tuck is a graduate of Dartmouth in the Class of 1862 and has been Dartmouth's greatest benefactor, founding the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration and Finance at Dartmouth in 1900 and contributing much since that time to the various needs of the College.
