CENTRAL BEGINS
 ANNUAL SESSION MANY STUDENTS ENROLL Exercises Held at College This Morn ing with Talks by Visit
 ing Educators.

Simple but impressive exercises op- ening the twenty-eighth annual ses- sion of Central College were held this morning in the college auditorium, be- ginning at 10:30 o'clock, before an audience of pupils and guests that fill ed the large room. Doak s. Camp bell, recently elected president of thhe institution, presided over the exercises. l The invocation was pronounced by Rev. E. P. J. Garrott, pastor of the First Baptist church. Following the invocation several musical numbers were rendered by members of the con- servatory, after which the ministers of the city were introduced to the stu dents by Mir. Campbell. Each of them made a short talk.
 pr. c. J. Greene, acting president of Hendrix College, delivered the ad- dress of welcome in behalf of the stu dent body of Hendrix College. He as sured the young women of Central that they would at all times have the whole-hearted support of the student body of Hendrix. Other short talks were made by Judge J. N. Rachaels of Searcy, a member of the board of trustees, Prof. R. E. Womack, super lntendent of the Conway public schools, and Dr. J. w. Conger, president emer- itus of Central College The benedic- tion was pronounced by Prof. A. J. Meadors of the State Normal.
 Matriculation and classification of students will be continued today, it was announced, and classwork proba- ply will begin tomorrow morning. The enrolment, it was said, has already reached the limit and several appli- cants have been turned away. Every indication points to an suspicious year for the college.
 MT. Campbell is beginning his first year as active president of the col lege and the good start already made indicates that his administration will be highly successful. The plans of the president and the board of trustees have the two-fold purpose of maintain ling the college at high standard of excellence and at the same time devel- oping it rapidly through the addition of new buildings and equipment, and the enlargement of the faculties on duty.
