Page Ten The HHDIU Dnrmn The Old Dormw stands in the moonligh Like a ghost of the days gone by, XV ho guards o'er the sacred campus, XVhere the soldier spirits lie. She speaks of the ery of anguish, Of the calm of the dying brave, Of the tramp of the gray clad general And the gray-clad men he gave. Yes, her steps may'still be blood-stained And worn, where the soldiers trod, And her walls may still be echoing Their cry to a deafened God. But there's peace in hersolemn grandeur As she stands in the moonlight glow, And she stands but for sacred memories. For men who still come and go.

The number of college students entering and the number graduating, the number in the college de- partment, the total enrollment and the number of insructors exceeded all previ- ous figures. The college indebtednsss of 330,000 was paid, over 3200,00o in cash and valid subscription was added to the endowment fund, more than doubling it, and in other ways enough additional was secured to increase the college assets by more than a quarter of a million dollars. Let no one suppose, however, that since this has been done we may now rest content on our oars. On the contrary, this is only a good beginning, many more things remain to be done. That our needs are increasing is em- phasized by the fact that our entering class last September numbered well over one hundred, the largest in our history. As a result our dormitories are already overflowing .into the town, in some of our class rooms every seat is taken and our laboratories, especially our Chemical laboratory, are so crowded as to seriously hamper the work of instruction. At the Wfinter meeting of the Board of Trustees, held December the 30th, 1913, several very important actions were taken, having in view the satisfying of our most pressing needs. In order to increase our dormitory accommoda- tions it was decided to change the large double house for professors on the campus into a college dormitory accommodating about thirty-six students. It was also decided to inaugurate a new campaign for the securing of a build- ing fund of SI30,000 for the following purposes: Qaj 575,000 for the building and equipment of a Science Hall located, according to. the present plans, on the southwest corner of the Prep Square. This is to accommodate the Departments of Chemistry, Biology, Botany and Mineralogy, and provide some extra class rooms which may be used for any need that may arise. At first it was planned to move the Department of Physics into the new building, but on second thought this was not found to be wise, firstly, because the chemical fumes would injure the delicate instruments used in Physics and, secondly, because the Department of Physics and En- gineering both use the same equipment to a considerable extent, and should, therefore, not be separated. It was found that by putting down a concrete floor in the part of the basement of Glatfelter Hall which is now unoccupied and making a few other necessary improvements, ample provision can lbe made for expansion in the Physics Department.
