The day is, how¬ ever, more than the birthday of a great man, for it is a day when all Americans can look again at the ideals upon which our nation stands. George Washington was more than a great general and a forceful statesman. Called the Father of his country/’ by the men who knew him, he was a patriot when patriotism was not as cheap as it is now; lie was a successful farmer, and was one of the first to employ scientific methods to his fields and pastures; he was a humble man, chcsing to be President when some would have made him King; he was a God-fearing man, supposing and attending his Church all hi.s life. It Is no wonder that this year 223 years after his birth, we still celebrate the birth of George Washington, still "first in the hearts of his countrymen.” Locals and Personals Mrs. Pearl Swanson had as her weekend guest Mrs Della York of Menton.

At that time the student enrollment was 20,449. It is anticipated that the en¬ rollment during the current year will be 25,000 and that during 1955-5G it will be at least 26.000. Became of the in¬ creasing number of young pec-' pie of college age and because of the increasing percentage of y° un i people of college age ac ^ ua ^y t° college, this upward trend is destined to continue for many years. It is P^bable that by 1970 college enrollment in Georgia, it faci¬ lities are available, will be 75% above the present level. It is very evident that addi¬ tional faculty membeis must be employed to provide instructors for the increased enrollment. Some additional money will be necessary for increases in sa¬ laries in order to retain the best qualified teachers in the sys¬ tem. The Agricultural Extension Service and the experiment sta¬ tions, so vital to the future de¬ velopment of Georgia Agricul¬ ture, are also a pr~t of the Uni¬ versity System. Seme addi¬ tional funds for these institu- t tions are necessary to keep- abreast of the needs of farm families. A comparison of the Univer¬ sity System’ with systems of neighboring states show Geor¬ gia’s System to be the lowest on appropriations per student, X>OOOOOCOOOCXXX3COCOCOOOOO<X ,XOK>3COOJ<XXXX>COXjOTO<- 1 O P T O M E T HIST C.
