The Bonaventure Man

     He acts upon principle. His norm of conduct is not the Spartan "Shall I be caught?" but the Christian "Is it right or wrong?" No other approval can substitute for him the approval of his own conscience.

     He cherishes self respect. Clean of thought, of word, of action, he prizes his honor as the gospel "pearl of great price," as a radiant heritage come down to him from generations of noble forebears.
