Mis = iss.ppi OxplanatioYi of C keme N THIS, the Historical Issue of the Toncopin, the division pages present five outstanding men in the history of Centenary, each one representing an era in its development, from its founding as a Methodist Institution on down through the trying years to the pres- ent day with Dr. George S. Sexton as president. The introductory drawings represent the development of the College, from the first building, an old condemned courthouse in Jackson, Louisiana, to the more modern campus of 1908 at Shreveport— where the present campus development started. In turning the pages of this book, the theme of progress through the 107 years of the growth of the Centenary is revealed to you. The historical data for this volume was taken from William Ham- ilton Nelson s book, A Burning Torch and a Flaming Fire, A His- tory of Centenary College, to whom we extend our grateful ac- knowledgments.
