RECORD. 7 England it was altogether fitting that the college should be a pioneer in its work. Located in virgin woods, the first students had to clear the land of stumps and logs as their fathers had done before them on their own farms. While this work was neces sary and valuable, it naturally delayed practical results, but time, patience, all and perseverance things, and grounds, stately and useful buildings and model fields are lasting monuments to the labors, prudence and foresight of its founders. the beautiful accomplish the people of The college was the first of its kind, there was no pattern to copy and no one of experience to counsel. We of this day should marvel that so much wisdom was displayed by the first au thorities and so few mistakes made. Presidents Williams and Abbott were wonderful leaders. They had to earn the good will of the state, not only to get suitable num bers of students, but also to secure from an unwilling and sometimes hos to tile legislature keep the college alive and prospering. We need not detail these struggles nor recount the adverse conditions of war and nature which from time to time interfered with its growth or even :hreatened its very existence. Suffice it to say that in spite of unavoidable obstacles and the indifference or act- ve opposition of those who should lave been its friends it has grown and )rospered until it stands proudly at he head of the agricultural colleges f the country. sufficient money It has cost millions in money, but it has returned to us many more mil lions. In better live stock, improved seeds and in the care and cultivation of fruits its teachings have been in valuable. Insects and diseases would long ago have swept the orchards from the state if it had not been for the vigilance and industry of the college and experiment station in discovering practicable remedies. indefatigable The college has agricultural, me chanical and women's departments, giving practical instruction to all who desire an education along those lines, and affording an excellent foundation if the student seeks highly special ized training in any particular work or profession. Many former students have reached eminence in teaching, in law, in medicine or even theology, or perhaps in more prosaic business pur suits, but no matter where they are or what tney do they usually have a love for the farm that sooner or later to the soil. All brings over Michigan are successful farms owned and managed by former college students, while the whole country is dotted with professors, chemists, and other workers in allied pursuits, who are living monuments to the valuable instruction imparted by our Agricul tural College. them back During its sixty years of existence the college has probably committed some errors. It has not reached the millenium and we do not expect our selves to see that day as long as the human factor continues to govern our to every day affairs. It has much its work. learn as well as to teach, it welcomes constructive criticism from its friends, it does not recognize an enemy though it admits there are many who do not know and understand In many ways the Grange and the Col lege are working along similar lines and there should be the closest har mony of purpose and endeavor. As the Master well said on another topic, we should not let little things obscure our vision of the larger and worthier objects. Some students have left the college who were not conspicuous suc cesses, experiments have been carried on that were apparent failures, but these negative results are more than counterbalanced by innumerable posi tive successes. The names of promi nent graduates if read would make us think of the roster of the American Hall of Fame. President Kedzie, the brilliant son of a distinguished father, grew up with the college and is carrying on its heavy responsibilities with honor to himself and credit to this great state. When a calamitous emergency arose in the wiping out by fire of the Engineering building and it looked as if to close, though its maintenance was one of the fundamentals of the original United States grants, President Ked the bountiful assistance of zie with the his friend, R.
