Johnson E. A. Terry W. F. Tidwell Graduate work has grown steadily in the past fifty years of educational development. Encouragement of this work at Auburn has meant the filling of many chairs in Southern colleges. The inspiration toward research in advanced work has meant valuable contributions to the store of human knowledge. To understand the modern problems and situations, the mind must be specially trained and it is to the trained mind that we must look for future progress. The Graduate work is under the direct supervision of the Dean of Graduate Studies but in co-operation with the deans of the various Colleges of the institution. The graduate work is modeled after that of other outstanding colleges of the South and East, holding ever as its desire to send men into the world better prepared and better trained to solve the problems of life.

ttfie GLOMERATA 1)R. SPRIGIIT DOWELL President If president means leader, director, friend, counselor and advisor, then Dr. Dowell is truly president of Auburn. His hours are never so full that he cannot offer advice and encouragement to those in need, and his mind never so absorbed that he cannot speak the cheerful “Good morning” that typifies the spirit of Auburn. Strength of character and purpose is written in every line of his face, and his eyes bespeak his love and loyalty to the position he fills so well. Under his administration, Auburn has known extraordinary growth and progress in faculty and buildings, as well as in total enrollment each year. This, combined with a wonderful personality, a generous heart and a just mind has won for him the sincerest love and respect bf all Auburn. 23

The State Chemical Laboratory, located at Auburn, is rendering efficient service to the manufacturers and consumers of Alabama and at the same time giving the students in this course a view of Chemistry in its practical application. 25 jj 10 2 7
