ADMINISTRATION Dr. Leon Edgar Smith Elon College has fifty years of successful operation and high educa- tional achievements to its credit. Its story of progress is interesting and thrilling. Beginning in an uncleared forest, Elon now boasts of ten buildings on the campus, valuable property and holdings off the campus, a fine student body numbering six hundred twenty-five, and a most efficient faculty. Her advantages at the beginning of her second half-century of service are auspicious. At present Elon College is larger than and is as efficient in the field of higher education as was anj ' institution of higher learning within the state fifty years ago. Prophetic insight would be required to indicate what the institution may be at the end of another half-century of service and growth. Her present acliievements have been attained by strict adherence and devotion to high ideals in all matters affecting the training and guidance of youth, by strict economy, and by unusual frugality. The founders and directors of the institution have made investments, em- ployed instructors, and formulated programs for procedure, all for the benefit of the youth of our state and nation in every age. The college stands today encouraging her present student body, congratulat- ing her present graduating class, and craving the cooperation and continued he!]) of those who have crossed her campus and gone out to do battle in life. Her influence has gone out through all the land and her invitation sincere and earnest is today extended to all ambitious youths who desire to discover their talents and develop the same for high service in a needy world.
