PRESIDENT GEORGE H. DENNY


Residents of Lexington and the
friends of Washington and Lee Uni
versity throughout the country are
hopeful that President George
Hutcheson Denny, the president of
Washington and Lee, will remain in
Lexington at the head OF the institu-
ton to which he has given so liber-
ally the past ten years of his fine
abilities. Bringing to his Office
unusual equipment he has in the
space OF ten years increased the at
tendance from 200 students to more
than three times that number. The
financial exhibit shows an increase
of endowment from $4,000 to
1888. 900. which is more than fifty
per cent. The total assets amount
TO 81, 1884, 900.
The curriculum has been enlarg-
ed, the standard raised and the
whole tone of the University ad-
vanced in keeping with the leading
institutions of the country.
To the efforts OF DR.. Denny, in
large measure, have these results
been brought about. His loss to
the University at this particular time
would be most unfortunate, when
efforts are being made for.the es-
adjustment of a countrywide me-
mortal TO General Lee. In this
movement his has been the domi-
naut spin it and the guiding hand.
DIR. Denny has seen visions and
dreamed dreams" for the future of
Washington and Lee, and THE GA
zErTE unites with the faculty and
alumni OF Washington and Lee, the
business men and town Council Of
Lexington and the press of the
State in urging that he remain in
Lexington and al the head OF Wash
ington and Lee. an institution, I'M
der his wise leadership, destined to
take front rank with the greatest
educational factors OF the country.
