They were the leaders. They met our needs and encouraged us to push on, learn more, and stay with the grind-the faculty and administration. They endowed us with knowledge required of a college student. They kindled our minds, refueled us with ambition and reburnishwed our tools for thinking. The MSC faculty and administration have been led successfully for twenty years by Dr. Ralph H. Woods. Because of their capabilities and experience Murray has made great strides in every department. The per- 'sonality of the college has been sparkled by the qualifications of its staff. X The staffers are truly furnished with the secret of successful teaching-accurateness, thoroughness, and earnestness. This imparts interest to instructions and awakens the attention of their listeners.
