in athletics. In the interest developed
in home athletics, in the cultivation
of the true spirit of sport, in the ar
rangement of intercollegiate athletics
and in the showing made against
other institutions, Berea has made
great gains.
The football team was the best ever
gotten together here as is proven by
the fact that it won from the strong
Georgetown team by score OF IL

THE GROWTH OF BERtA

The last year has been a year OF
growth and while every year has
been a year of expansion in Berea
College with new buildings, new
teachers, new equipment and enlarg-
ed opportunities so that it might
seem difficult to say in what direction
improvements could be made, yet this
year has been another year of i'm
provement especially in the student
body. There has been a steady
growth in numbers so that we have
had 76 more students than ever before
There has also been a delightful
growth both in character and in scho-
larship. The students are catching
broader visions of their opportunities
and of the deep things of life. This
augers great things for next year, We
have twice as many applications for
rooms for next fall as we have ever
had at this time in the term.
To meet the increasing number OF
students lndt are CIoNulhS lhNo ~
rea. we are hurrying forward the
erection of the new mems dormitory
given by DR.. Pearsons of Chicago.
This will accommodate l20 men with
all modern and manly comforts, such
as electric lights, steam heat, plunge
bath, etc, 49,.
The students are more and more
realizing the importance of being re-
gular in their courses Of study and an
unusual number have arranged to do
summer study to catch up studies in
which they were deficient, owing per-
haps to lack of laboratory and other
advantage in their preparatory
schools. A night school will be con-
Quoted during the entire summer va
cation. The new catalogue which
shows more clearly than ever before
the rich variety, and opportunities
of the courses of study may be OBJ
tanned from Secretary Gamble on re-
quest of those interested.
