We shall have larger attendance at
the Normal this year than in any pre-
vious year in the history of the institu-
ton, Last year our enrolment was
S75. 1t will not, in my judgement.
fall far short of 600 this year. Had
the crops in western Kansas been as
good as they are in the eastern part of
the state. it would certainly have
reached that figure In Kansas, as
you know, everything hinees upon the
condition of agriculture. The new
wing, which was added last year to the
Normal. greatly facilitates the work of
the institution. We were very much
crowded before this improvement was
made, and the prospect is that in few
wears we shall need still more room.
The Normal appreciates fully the lib
crafty of the state towards it, and
hopes to merit all that has been done
for it, and all which it way yet receive.
