LOCATION LEWISBURG, the county seat of Greenbrier County, is a typical Old Virginia residential town, situated fourteen miles from the Virginia line, just off the C. 8: O, Railway, about midway between Staunton, Virginia, and Charleston, West Virginia. It has a population of about three thousand people, most of whom are well-to-do, conservative in politics, business and religion, and enjoy the prosperity and happiness which comes with industry and integrity. They are cultured and hospitable, and take a kindly interest in the cadets, offering pleasant and refining social advantages in the inner circles of their homes, warmly welcoming the boys to their churches, and in various other ways showing the esteem which is ever commanded by gentlemanly conduct and merit. Greenbrier County, one of our largest counties, although rich in coal and timber in the western part, is almost wholly a grazing and farming section, being in the famous bluegrass and limestone area of the state. The town elevation of 2300 feet above sea level gives it a bracing climate while the surrounding mountains and the pretty valley of the Greenbrier River furnish beautiful and picturesque scenery. Easlly Accessible p Lewisburg is situated at the junction point of two arterial highways-U. S. Routes 60 and 219. It has C. Sc O. Railway service from both the main line and the Greenbrier Division. Ronceverte, on Route 219, is our railroad station. Six passenger trains a day put the parent in easy reach of the school, while the telegraph and telephone, of course, make it possible to communicate with the boy at any time of day or night. The Greenbrier Airport, seven miles distant near White Sulphur Springs, serves as a landing field for those who would come by plane. Ideally Located The school has a quiet and beautiful situation on a slight eminence, shaded by a pretty oak grove. It has a forty-five-acre campus and playground just outside of the business section of the town. One cannot think of anything needed to make this an ideal place for a school. There is no atmos- phere of bright lights, of questionable resorts, of city temptations and distractions, and yet the proximity to Lewisburg and White Sulphur prevents the monotony of school life entirely isolated and off in the country. The altitude and the bracing, though not extreme, climate make it ideal for year-around living. The educational atmosphere is an incentive to study, and all things combine to make Lewisburg an educational center. It has all the good points of country isolation and yet all the conveniences and advantages of an attractive, up-to-date town. 12
