bring to Alabama young men from 4e states of the union. and from Canada. Cuba, Porto Rico, Haiti, Mexico, Nicaragua. Brazil. Peru. Egypt and France. Alabamians are justly proud of the unique advantages which an men from all parts of the country. It is obvious that it takes distinct and exceptional merits for a school to establish it's reputation over a na- ton as Marion has done. IL speaks well for the care and attention given students of this school that scores of prominent Americans abroad--dip- lomats army and navy officers have placed their sons wholly in the care of the authorities of the insti- tute for an indefinite stay.
 Marion is said to be the only col lege in Alabama with an independent foundation, free from church and state control. It's organization is un- hampered by political influence and sectarian states. With such freedom of management, the institute can bring to it's teaching staff the very best men to be found, regardless of the salary demanded; she can lh- augurate advanced methods without dictation of church and state. In the official report of the board of of ficers of the general staff of the war department last spring, it was stated that the academic faculty of Marion Institute Is the highest paid of any institution of like character in the country The men that have been brought to Marion's faculty are genuine addition to the educational life of the state. They represent Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Bow doin, Michigan, Chicago. Virginia, Georgetown, West Point, the United States Naval academy and practically all the great American universities. Two new members have been added
