Dedication and Introduction to Their Country's Pride* The Centennial History of
Lyman Ward
Military AcademyBy Jerri Beck
Perhaps some will not consider it appropriate to use
the idea of peasantry in referring to those who staffed
and attended (The) Southern Industrial Institute. And yet,
they came from circumstances that were neither grand
nor wealthy. Even the most affluent of them prospered
only from their labors. Surely they should be seen as
a new generation of pioneers to leave home and embark
on a journey for knowledge. That they prospered and
crafted successful and happy lives should, indeed,
be their country's pride.Those who have carried and continue to carry on
the tradition at Lyman Ward Military Academy
are equally bold, accepting of multiple challenges
and equally worthy of their country's pride.
