Dedication O W. C. Walton, who manifested not merely a professional attitude toward his students but fatherly interest in them as well, we re- spectfully dedicate this book which is meant to reflect the life of the school in which he has so faithfully labored for the good of others. He who is patient in turmoil, and calm in distress, Who even in failure sees a gleam of success, Who is cheerful and helpful from dawn to day ' s end — Such an one is a MAN — and the students ' real friend.

THE McKENDREAN

Page 8 text:

To be the President of McKendree College is to be in a position which both merits honor and involves responsibility. To obtain this office is one thing, but to do credit to it is another. McKendree College has honored Dr. Geo. E. McCammon by conferring upon him the office of President. But that is only half the story. President McCammon. in return for the deference shown to him, has served in a capacity of president faithfully and well. He has not only labored conscientiously in his discharge of administrative duties on College Hill, but he has done a work beyond the limits of the campus which is worthy of recognition. The value of the work done in the latter connection can scarcely be estimated, for he has helped to create a sentiment with respect to McKendree College which cannot but be of great value to the institution. He has met with a response that has been manifested in an appreciable financial success as well as a wide-spread interest. Mere works can do but little in expressing cur gratitude to Dr. McCam- mon or our appreciation for his work. Only by our hearty co-operation in the work which he is doing and our loyal support to the institution which he is serving so faithfully can we best do honor to him to whom honor is due.
