ADMINISTRATION B SCORE of yean ago our University of Florida was vM«d in a pile of lumber, a few bricks, and an ideal, situated on a sandy road, which led the ambitious traveler from the small village of Gainesville westward to the phosphate mines. The lumber pile has long since vanished, the few bricks have expanded into a Gothic city whose buildings arc spread here and there amid groves of sighing, moss laden pines; the sandy trail is a city street lined with lovely palm trees and faced by splendid homes; the unattractive village has become one of Florida’s leading cities; but the ideal, that hidden, indefinable power which lias caused the embryo to take such rapid strides forward, remains unaltered. Twenty years ago our faculty numbered twelve men. These men had performed superhuman tasks before then, and these twelve were not to l»e outdone. In the face of overwhelming odds, without a supporting alumnus, on meager salaries, but with faith in each other, they set about the task of providing the State of Florida with its first University. Sonic, of course, dropped out and others took their places. ear by year •heir number increased; year by year their ideal grew toward realization beneath their untiring efforts. While today their dream i far from being accomplished, it has at least gained an impetus of its own, which is rapidly carrying it on toward the goal. Our Faculty, we rejoice with you in your success; we rcs| cel you for your knowledge, ami wc love you for your courage. Your success is our success; your joys are our joys; and may you cherish in your hearts the assurance that when we shall have passed beyond your guiding hands our hearts ami our prayers shall l»e always with you. 1915 PACK 21
