PRESIDENTJELECT SWEETLAND The Rev. Leon H. Sweetland is a native of Iowa, from a lineage among the founders of the great schools in New York and Michigan. He is a farmer's son, and knows country life well. He faced pioneer conditions in the early days of development of Western Kansas and Nebraska. He taught school to secure funds for starting his college training. Persistence gave him an A. B. and M. A. degree in Northwestern University and he also re- ceived his B. D. from Garret Biblical Institute. Mr. Sweetland's western experience combined with the best of eastern training makes him especially fitted to assume a work in a new college in a growing state. A The board of trustees, faculty, and student-body are enthusiastically with him for a greater Montana Wesleyan.
