The Deans Dean J. H. Wisely is very efficiently filling the office of Dean of Faculty during the absence of T. E. Ferguson. His time spent in teaching lends dignity to his position. We will let the old maxim, By their works ye shall know them, speak for Mr. Wisely. Miss Ruth Mays, a very important factor in the administration of S. F. A., has shown her intense interest in the women of the college as well as all other students by the aid which she has given toward the solution of situations con- cerning their welfare in the college. Mr. C. E. Ferguson, Dean of Men, has, through his affable nature, won the respect and admiration of the entire school. He is always willing to advise with any student in the problems which may arise. He is to be considered not only a chaperon but also an advisor and friend. Dean Wisely Dean Mays Dean Ferguson Page . 22

The moving finger writes. Another year has been added to the history of the college. Old traditions have been strengthened, and new ones have arisen. Students, generally speaking, have been serious and thoughtful. It is confidently believed, therefore, that aspirations have been born and that ambi- tions are in process of realization. The Stone Fort comes to you as a faithful picture of the sixth year of the life of the college. In it you will find, through the passing years, many reminders of the toil and pleaures of the session of 1928-29, You will allow me, I trust, to express the hope that each student has a little better hold on the verities of life because of the year ' s work; that he has found in the great books of the library the story of the aspirations and achievements of man during his long history; that, withal, his own philosophy of life has been clarified, and that he is looking out into the futue with hope and courage. Very truly, A. W. Birdwell, President. Page - i
