RECENT IMPRQVEMENTS PENNSYLVANIA CoLLEoE. 'ROM the time it was founded in 1832 up to 1884, Pennsylvania Col- lege has 'made steady progress, but its advance since then has been so rapid+almost phenomenal-that THE SPECTRUM would be incom- plete were we to pass this matter by unnoticed. It is not the purpose of this article, however, to give a detailed account of the improvements made, but only to state in a general way what has been done.

During the summer of ISSQ, Pennsylvania Hall underwent a thorough renovation, which has greatly added to the comfort of its occupants since that time. McCreary Hall, formerly used as a gymnasium, is now a well equipped Chemical Laboratory. Its new dress has enhanced its outward appearance very much. It is now one of the most attractive buildings on the campus. Linnaean Hall, which, until recently, was used as a Chemical Labora- atory, has also undergone considerable change. It has been enlarged and improved, and thoroughly fitted up with the latest and most approved apparatus as a first-class gymnasium. 1 Another new building recently added stands a short distance south- west of the New College Building.
