and 1904. For sixteen years the head of the institution was known as “Superintendent.” Since then he is recognized as “President.” There have been five administrations, as follows: J. A. Harding, ten years; William Anderson, five years; Dr. J. S. Ward, one year; E. A. Elam, six years; H. Leo Boles, seven years. Wailliam Ander- son died during the vacation of 1906, which necessitated a change in administration. When J. A. Hard- ing left the Nashville Bible School, he established a similar institution at Bowling Green, Ky. | Until his decline in health, David Lipscomb was looked to for counsel and strength. He passed quietly away from us November 11, 1918. The alumni consists of pupils from fifteen States and Canada. The following States are represented: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Washington. The first Literary Society was known as the “Babylonian.” The first members of the four societies of the present time were selected by “choosing up. Since their organization, they are recruited by vol- untary membership. During the tenth session of the school $99.00 paid the entire school expenses—board and tuition. There was a time when girls were charged more for board per term than boys. Guess why. Under the old regime seventeen certificates were given. Under the present system one hundred and fifty-nine diplomas have been given, conferring degrees. This number includes the present senior class. Nine honorary degrees have been conferred by the school. Se aoiinan: Page ten
