Wherefore Has New
President.

DIR. John A. Gregg, M. A., D. D.,
president for seven years of Edward
Waters College, was elected on the
18th to be President of Wilberforce
University.
The race affords 10 better pre-
pared widely experienced man than
DIR. Gregg for such a position of dis
tinction andd honor. During his seven
years presidency of Edward Waters
College increased its enrolment from
1888 to $50 with a faculty of 26 and
has raised its standard in all depart
ments till it is an institution of con-
siderable value to us at present.
During the Spanish-American War
he served the entire time being one
of the first volunteers to reach Cuba,
upon being mustered out of the army
re-entered Kansas University and
took his B. A. Degree with honors in
his class.
DR.. Gregg with his wife did Three
Years Missionary Service in Cape
Town Africa, after being sent from
A. M. E. Church connection after
pastoring several years in Emporia,
kans. He is now in his 43rd year and
ripe with experience and calm with
years making him the best possible
choice for Wilberforce.
Mrs. Gregg, his pleasant and at
tractive wife who has travelled much
of the paths Of experience with her
husband is we'll suited to the duties
that will befall her in the routine OF
DR.. Gregg's new work.
Wherefore is to be congratulated
on her choice.
