strength is not weak, nor her labor
sorrow, but she is like never failing
stream that grows more powerful ard
useful as it lengthens in its course.
The College is better equipped for
thorough and efficient work than ever
before. for we have more room and
more instructors. Several additional
instructors will be employed to assist
in the different departments. We
shall also have New Science Hall
which is a convenient, magnificent
and beautiful edifice. This building
will be ready for occupancy next
week. Another step Of continued
progress is the change which has been
made in the Curriculum, which offers
many electives of interest and profit.
These three special advantages viz,
room, more instructors and better
curriculum, will be of great value to
our students. From present indica.
tons it scenes that this year is to be
another year of great progress in our
ever growing College.
