The Old and the New Maryville BIRTHDAY ' S HIT days of retrospect and pmspeet. On her ninetieth hirth- dav, ilarvville Collejie looks baek njion a lilorions youth. Of her numbers and strength the early days l)rin.e lint indefinite reports. We know that they were davs of hardship, and, so far as nnnd)ei-s are eoneerned, of small thin . Of her achievements, however, the reports have no nneertain sound. They were achievements glorions in the cause of Christ and His church, when Dr. Isaac Anderson and his faithful codaborers sent out scores of young men into the gospel ministry. These were the days fmm 1819 to 1801. When the College reopened in 1866, it had but one instructor and thirteen students; and even twenty years later, there were only seventeen instructors and four hundred students. During all of these years the growth in develop- ment and endowment represented only about two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Now ninety years old, Maryville has thirty-two professors and teachers, (i22 students, and an endowment of three-quarters of a million of dollars. Maryville ' s greatest advance along all lines has been during the eight years of Pi-esident Wilson ' s administration. During that time the enrollment of the College has nearly doubled, while that of the College Department has increased one htmdred and forty ]ier cent. The past vear has lieen i ne of exceptional develupment. The fm-ward fund, bringing $227, Mi(i additiimal endowment to the College, has made possible the Ralph Max Lamar Memorial Hosjiital, already in jirocess of construction; the Carnegie dormitory for young men, upon which the architect is now working: and a home for the Cooperative Club, to be begun within a few months. Other imjirovements, of even greater importance to the students, concern the development of the curricula. The preparatory course has been iiut upon a four-year basis and so strengthened that it will now prepare for any college or university in the country. Improvements in college courses, the addition of new courses, together with better facilities for teacher and student, will mean the greater gro- i h of the institution, more students, more teachers, and wider influence. At ninety years of age, Maryville is still young. The future is full of promise. ] Iuch of what Maryville is today is due to the imfailing self-sacrifice of her president, and the many generations yet to follow will feel the impress 17
