old fungo bat of his. Christianity
to us was not an attraction, it
was Cashion in action.
“His great humility and extreme
modesty impressed me then and
that impression has remained with
me through life. I heartily agree
with Woodrow Wilson in his con
tention that the word 'noble’ denot
es an unselfish man who gives al
ways more than he ever expects to
receive. This truly typifies Cash

“If I were to make a criticism
of our present day society it
would be that we have lost too
much of the moral basis of our
lives. If I were to criticise our
capitalistic economy I would say
that it has lost its moral charac
ter and integrity. We need a res
toration of the moral principle
in our economy to survive. Living
men should become living models
of citizenship, living symbols of
those great virtues of integrity and
moral principles.
“Great values are gained only
through great sacrifice. A value
enjoyed by everyone is a cheap
one indeed. It is easy to go along
with a crowd, but difficult to swim
upstream against the current a-
lone.
Dr. Walton characterized Mr.
Cashion as a Christian gentleman
of the highest type, and compli
mented his “imperishable but un
derstanding spirit for those things
which are necessary to live life
to the fullest. He admonished the
students that “you can follow in
his footsteps and know your path
is upward.”
