With the fine commence
ment of the Smyrna High
School at which a class of 21
graduated and the graduation
of lis young men and women
from the University of Della
ware last week, the progress
of these rapidly expanding in
stitutions of learning, brings
nearer the realization of those
most deeply concerned. In
the case Of "OId Delaware,
the highest educational insti-
tuition in the State, there IS
unstinted pride in that it IS
becoming one of the foremost
schools of this country i n
point of scholarship. Quite a
lofty ambition, one may de-
clare, but the fulfillment of
such aspirations is by no
means without reason. 1t is
quite within the scope of
probability that the first state
and almost the richest, per
capita should attain that high
point Of distinction in the ed
ucational world. Such, we be-
ieve, the president, faculty
and alumni and all friends of
the university are striving
for. Delaware College and
the Women's College Of the
University of Delaware, have
shown remarkable expansion
in the last three or four years,
and it is interesting to note
how rapidly higher education
is taking root among our
young women of this state.
