GDur jfrrfitftrnt rHE Board of Trustees of Union University never did a wiser thing than when they if I made Dr. G. M. Savage President of Union University in nineteen hundred and fifteen. He served in the same capacity sixteen years, 1 890- ' 06. At f his time Union University was known as Southwestern Baptist University. Dr. Savage came to this position ripe in scholarship, rich in wisdom and experience, and a strong faith in God. During this period the University had a greater enrollment than she had at any time, and the school made great progress in every way. It was during this time that Powell Chapel was completed, Lovelace Hall, the Conservatory Building, and the Power House were built and Adams Hall was remodeled and enlarged. Under President Savage ' s leadership since nineteen hundred fifteen, we have seen the Self Helpers Department established at Lovelace Hall, Ministerial Department at Adam? Hall and the enrollment has increased from two hundred fifty to more than five hundred. Frankness, openness, and big-heaitedness characterize all of his dealings. He hates wrong doing and disregard for authority, but he loves the wrong-doer, and will bear with him so long as his influence does not threaten some other life. He is a master in his line of work. His capacity for doing things does not decrease with age. This is shown by his activity in teaching as many hours as his co-laborers together with his administrative duties. There has never existed such harmony between faculty and students as has char- atcerized his entire administration. May he be spared to us many more years.
