0 4b ulllnv illcllmzauannr CRLMSON RArILLER Dr. and Mrs. Hoover The year 1909 marks a new era in the history of Carthage College. In that year Dr. Hoover was elected to the presidency. ' Dr. Hoover graduated from Susquehanna University at Selins Grove. Penn- sylvania. in 1902. The next year he held a pastoratc in Freedom, Pennsylvania. and later in a suburban church at Pittsburgh. Then he returned to Susquehanna to be instructor in Department of Practical Theology. From here he came to Cartilage College, where hc has been President for seventeen years. At the time of his com- ing he was the youngest college president in the United States. Dr. Hoover has helped make Carthage College what it is today. lVhen he first came here it was a poor struggling college, but many improvements, both material and Scholastic. have been. made during his presidency. Carnegie Science Hall and Den- hart Hall have been built. The college has been placed on an equal standing with other larger educational institutions. Dr. and Mrs. Hoover have always had the interests of the college close at heart. Mrs. Hoover has been a willing helper of Dr. Hoover in all his work. She has also taken an active part in missionary work. She has been the leader of the Student Volunteer Band, which is an organization composed of those students who expect to become missionaries. Next year the Hoovers are going to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, where Dr. Hoover has accepted the Chair of Practical Theology. A great honor has been conferred upon him bv being elected to this chair. Although Dr. and Mrs. Hoover are leaving. they and their work will never be forgotten. 1 n lllltulllllll llllllllllll . Q - V V np4luJIiAcllnn.34,i,1mi1mvxvvrgufimifuq mm, un A 0 SIX
