Turning to another page in this rec that the time out of mind in 1898 the doors ord we find to of this college were thrown open women who were provided with a special course—a new thing, a depar ture from tra ditional type of education for women.

The passage of the bigness of time will emphasize heart, the wealth of sympathy, t he stability of character which animated the desires, the motives, and the .ef forts of him who guided the destinies of M.

How valuable such t r a i ts are in the indi viduals called to preside over our in stitutions of learning no one can as sume to measure. time If Doctor Snyder could speak to us at this it would, be to hesitate with characteristic modesty to accept personal claim to these achievements.
