Mrs. Lillian M. Walker Dean of W omen In like manner, every college has its indispensable office, to teach elements: but it can only highly serve ivhen it aims not to drill, but to inspire; when it gathers from afar every ray of various genius to its hospitable halls and by their concentrated fires sets the hearts of its youth on flame. — Emerson, [ is ]

To think of Dr. Penney is to think of power. Power of purpose and power of execution. His two years at Millikin show a record of real ac- complishment. As a business man of marked ability he has increased the administrative efficiency of the uni- versity. As an unusual scholar he has raised the scholastic standing. And as a true friend of all students he has created an atmosphere of con- fidence among them, both in himself and in the university. His fairness and his consideration for the view- points of others have been remarkable. Every student feels that the president is his friend and will treat him fairly. In fact, the very presence of the power and kindness that is Dr. Penney is meaning an untold amount to Millikin. [ 17 ]
