The walls are decorated with athletic and other student pictures dating back many years. The kitchen is spacious, lijrht, and well ventilated. The equipment is up-to-date in every respect. This entire department is in charge of an experienced steward and buyer and is a source of satisfaction to all con- nected with the Academy. Water Supply The Academy is located on the outskirts of Lexington about one-half mile from the business district. The air is fresh and pure at all times and a more healthful location could not be found. The water is furnished by the Missouri River. Before being pumped to the city, it is settled, cleared and purified. The Academy, however, is not satisfied with this general treatment and has installed a system of modern filters, which furnishes a pure and abundant supply of water. The Hospital The Hospital is located one-half block from the Academy, a distance which is convenient- ly close and at the same time far enough away to isolate completely any case of con- tagious or infectious disease. It is a nine- room building and is completely equipped for the handling of any case of illness which might arise. There are twenty-five beds in the hospital, eight of them in the large ward and others in the smaller rooms. Contagious diseases are promptly placed in isolation wards. noCTOSS ' OfTICE
