Address
Cox College, at College Park, has
hfeen standardized, and is now one of
only »lx in the Southern States with
such a rating.
This college wbb established 73
years ago, and has an unbroken his
tory as a great educational Institution
for girls. Dr. C. Lewie Fowler has
been elected president, with Profes
sor Cox as co-president and busineas
manager, thus relieving Professor Cox
of a portion of his arduous duties, en
abling them to place the institution In
Its present standing.
Beginning the first of this year,
many imjrrovements have been made
and new’ equipment purchased. The
laboratories’ are now complete, hav
ing been newly equipped throughout
with every modern convenience.
Several hundred volumes have been
added to the already magnificent li
brary, and every department of the
Institution brought up to the minute
In all the essentials.
College graduates, trained especial
ly in their respective work, have been
added to the corps of instructors, and
every department has as its head one
who knows that particular branch of
edtirational work.
Since the appearance of the first
advertisement of the college this year
probably half of the number of stu
dents who can be accommodated in
the dormitory have already registered,
and scores of inquiries are coming in
by every mail.
“At this period last year,” said Dr.
FY>wfer, “there had not been a single
inquiry, so the showing made thus far
Is indeed very gratifying, as it show*
that the country is not in such a bad
condition financially some would
have ue believe. Our collections have
oloo been unusually good.
“We are making preparation for tho
largest attendance in the history’ of
bhe college this year, and expect an
overflow before the opening day. This,
however, will not interfere with tak
ing core of many others, as College
Park is one of the most desirable res
idence sections of the State, and good
accommodations may be hod In pri
vate families, where the home influ
ence will be added.

plished a great deal for the college.
"A distinctive and great feature has
been added in the health department.
