When playing Rubber Bridge, anyone can declare honors! Any player at the table can collect 150 scoring points for having the ace, king, queen, jack and 10 of the trump suit. For having any four of those cards, you get 100 points. They must all be in one player's hand. You collect 100 points for having the four aces in a no-trump contract.
