F OURTEEN years ago a man with broad vision, unlimited energy, a magnetic personality, and unusual executive ability came to the Fort Hays Normal School as its president. Through his efforts we have seen our school built into an accredited college, have seen its enrollment doubled several times. Though possibly not as readily seen, his in- fluence in inspiring and directing the lives of the young people with whom he works, has been as productive of results. President William A. Lewis was born in Dwight, Illinois. He received his early education in a rural school and small-town high school. After graduating from the Chillicothe Normal College, he taught a country school. He received a B. S. degree from the Valparaiso (Indiana) University in 1899, an A. B. degree in 1910, and an LL. D. de- gree in 1914. He was a student at the Armour Institute of Technology, and at the University of W isconsin. From 1901 to 1903 he was pro- fessor of physics in the State Teachers College, W ' arrensburg, Missouri. The next four years were spent as a teacher of chemistry in Kansas City, Missouri, first in the Central High School, and then in the College of Pharmacy. After six years’ work in the Missouri State Teachers College, be became director of the State Demonstration Farm at the University of Utah and professor of industrial education. From Utah he came to our institution. As we review the work of the past fourteen years, we can clearly see a still bigger and more worth-while future for our college under the leadership of a man as capable as President Lewis. Page 15
