TIME is both a true yardstick and a dependable divining-rod. Time determines the stature of a man and fathoms his innate worth. Applying the test of Time to Colonel John William Harrelson, our Dean of Administration, we find him emerging from each passing year a bigger, fuller man, ever revealing new facets of priceless quality. Colonel Harrelson has grown with State College, and State College, under his careful nurturing, has blossomed and borne fruit in a profusion never known before. The fleeting years find him alert for new opportunities to enhance and expand the institution ' s services to the masses of North Carolina and the nation. That is progress; that is achievement. On the personal side, Time has endowed Colonel Harrelson with a dignity and court- liness that few men possess. He is a soldier and a devotee of peace. He is an educator and a student of human needs. With him public service is a passion, an ideal that can never be overshadowed by personal ambitions. His is indeed a character ever expanding and of great worth. We proudly pay tribute by dedicating to him this thirty-eighth volume of THE AGROMECK.
