is also- said that he trees into office \

seek and encourage the support ~~
which is the sensible thing to do.

AlThis .New rresident
When Di. S. K. lliggins o~t
'luu lesion was named head of Alen
University by the trustee
oard in a special session last
Vednesday held at Bethel church,
'olunibia, he enjoys the distincion
of polling more votes with
ecret ballots than any head evet
boson for the post. It proved
>eyond a reasonable doubt that
le was the choice of the state
ind should receive its unstinted
mpport from Greenville to Chareston.
He received almost three
imes enough votes required to
loct him. Dr. Higgins ought to
nake one of the best presidenthe

resident is. familiar with school
idniinistration and he is going ir
office with the right spirit accordng
to his speech. In his address
