Care in the selection of a college
was urged upon the 54S members OF
the Central High School graduating
class by William Mather Lewis
president of George Washington Uni
versity, in his commencement ad
dress last night in the school audi
forum. Mr.. Lewis told the graduate
there are 900 high grade colleges in
the country which will receive on al
average of 1000 new students next
Fall.
what l want to urge is that there
Ia a certain college which would hi
each of YOU admirably and it is VI
TO YOU to find it. l hope that some
day American parents will take as
much time in the selection of col
lece for their children as they dc
in the selection of an automobile
You can't select a college by read
ing catalogues. You must make a
personal visit and examine them just
as you would an automobile.
