NEWBERRY COLLEGE. e, Auspicious Opening-200 Studer Enrolled-Formal Opening This Morning. n, Thc opening of Newberry colle on last Wednesday morning was e o ceedingly gratifying to all concei ) ed. The large beautiful auditoriv was almost full of students andfrien g of the college -who had come to w come the student body and manift - their interest in the college-the pri - of the town and its friends. T% hundred names were enrolled-a ;t me,re to come. President Schei e showed his grea-t gra:ification by t e pleasing smiles that wreathed I . face during the exercises. He ; nounced that we would have a sort i family welcome this morning po poning the formal opening till nic e Friday morning. He then int duced Prof. Bowers. w,o in beli of the faculty and at -the request the presiden-t of the college, extend t a hearty welcome to all the studen old and new. Always interesting a Ls entertaining, Prof. Bower.; was d pecially so on this auspicious oc< :s sion, for as he remarked, it was inspiration to stand before a body h young people bent on getting an ec it cation. He assured the students th e the faculty was ready with o1 d I stretched arms to welcome any you man or young lady tlhat had come 1. college and was in earnest. Neith n Newbery college nor any school h a any room for that boy or girl who n ( not in earnest. The world of tod is looking for the earnest man or w I man-one who had the purpose to r. something in life. He urged that was their duty to be in earnest in th ,s work-that their presence here mea e a saving, and in many instances a r< sacrifice, on the part of their parer at home, and no pupil has the right :e come here and fritter away his tin V losing golden opportunities. It r l quired great sacrifices to send on r child to college-as -he could test: from personal experience-and t _ child should appreciate the opportu d ties given, The scholarly profess .- I also reminded them of two gold d I rules so appropriate to student 1 and work-push along your wor< e don'-t let it pile up on you-and wh you have finished your own wo help some one else along. I eBowers closed witb. liberal applat n from the audience. sAs this was to be only a family fair. President Scherer said he to pleasure in presenting Dr. George Cromer, mayor of the town of Ne berry. Dr. Cromer facetiously marked that he didn't know what cc nection his office as mayor had to t with the college and 'h.e solemn n warned President Scherer t'hat need not expect the mayor of the toa e to assist the president in keeping 7boys from paying their attentions y neighboring potato patches. I Cromer is no stranger to the studer it and was greeted with hearty har n clapping w'hen he arose. His addr< i was short an-d to the point-reph is with sound sense and good advice. I tried to impress upon his you y friends the great value of their c tt portunities and suggested two pl 1- cepts that should guide them in th t- life-they should be written in ca tal letters and posted above the stu d table of every student--Be on tin f and second. Be ready when you s :there. By following these two gold r. jrules success would be theirs. I r.Cromer's short talk was much enjr ed. C After further announcements different members of the faculty 1 to appointment of recitation perio : and assignment of a program1 Y wKich was only tentative. Dr. Schei -announced that the formal openi would be held on next Friday wh d addresses by several gentlemen n prominence would be made.
