I » THE KEH 1 4 President Henry S. Barker PlIKSIUKNT HkNHY S. BahKKR President Barker came before the Student Body of Kentucky Stntc University for the first time on Wednesday, before Thanks- giving during November. 1910. This was n great dnv foe Stale University and a great day for the students. Tills wan live day before the great football gome of the year, tile day when college spirit was at it» highest temperature. It was a day when the exuberance of youth was being fell by all the boys, ami hence a time when the councils of a father” needed to bo spoken. At this psychological moment. President Barker walked into the chapel, while tlic air was being rent with yells which came from the throats of them. w1k at first glance swore allegiance to the new president. And when he rose to greet his new disciples, the silence was intense, all awaiting the first words of counsel from this wise counselor. And the wools that he spoke from the abundance of bis heart on this occasion, won the love of all who had assembled. His very personality is one which awakens in the heart of every student a desire to follow the footstep of the Judge. It lias been this personality of tlic man, this ] erpetual smile on his face, the words of honesty proceeding from an honest heart, and the grand and lasting friendship which one feels in the grasp of his manly hand, that have caused the wonderful changes that have come over live nature of tlic school. The immorality of the past lias changed into the morality of the present: noises and disturbances of the |vast have become tranquillities for today. Wrong lins be- come right: ami class fights hue gone ns history. Evil have been overcome by good, mid it -seems that now every student is writing an ode to duly. These wonderful changes lisvc not come by evolution. Evo- lution does not conic in rapid strides but by gradual development, ami these change in the atmosphere of the institution have come from the change in the individuals who make the institution: the changes in the individual have come from the contact with a forceful leader, whose every thought is “A Greater Kentucky State.” And hence, our growth of an enrollment of 600 students to an enrollment of 1300 students. Not too much can lie said for President Bnrkcr. A man in every sense: a graduate of the school of viieriencc. He is an enthusiast in all that is vital toward making a man. He goes to all athletic games, and sits aiming the boys. In brief, he is a man, a lovable, magnanimous man. 14
