- fc HE above picture represents quite well the C J splendid and substantial new King of Prussia stone Entrance to the college grounds. It was erected by the members of the class of 19 1 4 and is a very fitting ' evidence of de- votion and loyalty to their Alma Mater. It is a thing of beauty and is much appreciated not only by the authorities of the college but also by all the stu- dents and friends of the institution. Dr. G. D. Gossard.

H Advancement EBAN( )N Valley College stands for the fullest development of voting men and women in head, heart and body. Its work is di- vided into five departments, namely: College, .Academy, Music, Oratorv and Art. We have a good school, fine faculty, splendid student body, new modern buildings, excellent laboratories, workable library, large campus, new gym- nasium, athletic field and track ' , winning athletics, healthful climate, and our students make good both in and out of school. The splendid, loyal spirit of students and graduates is shown by the equipping of a fine gymnasium by the alumni in 1913, the installing of a large Howard Clock by the class of 1913, and the erection of a beautiful and substantial King of Prussia stone entrance to the college grounds by the class of 1914. ( hir buildings, including grounds and equipment are valued at $300,000. However, we must build larger. The number of students has increased re- cently and crowded our buildings beyond their capacities so that more than a score of young men are rooming in temporary quarters, and the Senior girls are rooming in a rented house. The dining hall, though accommodating 120 boarders, is inadequate and 60 students take their meals in the parlor. The growth of the s tudent body is remarkable. Ten years ago there were 22 fresh- men, two years ago 38, last year 57 and this vear 104 matriculated. There are 234 students in the colleg-e department. The total number in all departments two years ago was 242. last year 305, and this year there will be 360 or more. being an increase of 50 per cent, in two years. We must have more buildings and more endowment to accommodate the rapidly increasing student body, and we believe they will. come. A campaign is now being carried on to raise an endowment fund of $250,000. 1 R. G. D. Gossard.
