AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE is beautifully situated on one side of the Georgia Railroad (see Genesis 1:25), whose trains have a remarkably regular schedule, never in all the glorious history of the institution having once failed to pass during prayers, chapel, or song recital. The campus is quite unique among campuses. It is adorned with green trees, grass which one must not tread upon in the spring and twelve imposing buildings. The first building to meet one ' s eye after one has J undergone the terrors of the underpass is a large structure made of red brick topped by the famous tower which one may not ascend in body, but which has nevertheless made many a Freshman ' s spirit soar into the realms of poetry. The effect of the whole is sufficiently impressive to render this building worthy to contain the powers that be, the telephone and several of the torture chambers. Above these, for two stories, people live and still higher up they sing and paint. When Miss Hopkins makes an announcement she calls the place Agnes Scott Hall, but we ourselves can never picture it by any other name than Main Building. Hung to one side of this construction by means of the far-famed colonnacie is that superficial adjunct of Higher Learning — a place to eat and sleep — Rebekah Scott Hall. It is piously constructed in the form of a cross, with dainty little Juliet balconies really meant to be fire-escapes, hung to the sides. On the ground floor is the great assembly hall of the multitude when they sing songs and pray prayers — the chapel. There are the Society halls, where you hav e to sing for twelve days in two weeks and then one night you listen to debates. J bi .,
