As a student in my fourth yeai

there has been a decided increase
in the college enrollment year by

increased, but there has alsu
been a marked change in tin
type of student attracted to the
college, as compared with former
years. From -all signs, tin- e< 1ege
stents to draw, in general, a
superior type of student.
The records show that scholarship
is more pronounced due to tin
recent institution of the uuality

A higher grade of academic w?mU
is demanded of the studci:' as a
result of the first, while tin- latter
serves as an incentive Or award

achievement.
