44 f l HEBRON ACADEMY THE Act ol lncorporation, authorizing the establishment of Hebron Academy, bears the date of February 'lO, 1804. No educational society was present at its birth nor fostered its interests For more than seventy years, yet during all this period while many other academies have been established in the villages of Maine and have died after a precarious existence, the light ol this Academy has continued to shine For more than one hundred and thirty-six years, ln 'I877 it became affiliated with Colby College as one ol its pre- paratory schools, and, since that connection was made, its growth, both material and educational, has been steady and rapid. For one hundred and eighteen years l-lebron Academy had been co-educational. l-lowever, changed conditions of society, and the tendencies of the times, necessitated a change. On March 'l7, 1922, l-lebron Academy was made a school for boys, and the results of this change have been most gratifying. l lebron Academy has gained prestige among preparatory schools, and her honor shines bright as a beacon for her children.
