THE GUILFOMD OF 1928 The year has hnineht a numlier of changes. Thnush these appear in a variety (if ways tlie most iili iiins are those which can be seen in the physical equipment of the institution. The natural place to he- ,ein is at the front gate. However, here there are few changes of importance. The drive seems strangely smoother than ever hefiTe. ( )nly last Slimmer it was re- covered with a new top sod. The once muddy road hetween the Meeting House and Mem llall looks strangely attractive with its new gravel and ccment-lnllcd ditches. I ' rom the exterior the V. M. C. . . 11:11 and the Meeting House look very much the same, hut the latter possesses a newly linished interior with additional Sunday School rooms in the hasement. Memorial Hall stands as stately as c er with her newly painted trimmings. .Xnd the lirst floor is also newly painted includ- ing a very strange rearrangeinent of rooms. Dr. Binford and Miss Oainey remain in their original quarters. Miss Lasley now ticcupies the private office once used hy Dr. Binford. Her original office serves as head(|uarters of 77ic (.iiiill ordiaii and Tlw Oudki-r. The r.ist Office is no longer on the left side of the door as one entered the old room, liut is now on the right side. Mr. Turner, the husiness ni; linger, has lii sanctum in the jiosition of the old Post Office. The Chemistry and I ' ,i..l..gy lahora- tories never change. The Liljrary is more attractive than ever with its new set of white stucco columns in the ionic style of architecture. The Class of 192fi presented a number of new biiok and magazine stands to the interior which adds to its elficieiicy. King Hall continues to resist the tempta- tion of a fire and retains its oval top en- trance doors wdiich give the building a singular appearance. New Garden Hall no longer contains the cold, unattractive lobby and parlor. In their stead m;iy be seen a new set of wicker furniture in the parlor with comfortable chairs and attractive tables in the lobby. Looking into the liackground beyond the old power plant (which is to be torn down soon) one may see the wonder of wonders — a handsome new brick power plant in which is a roomy well equipped laundry and pressing club romn. Founders Hall, perhaps the most familiar building on the campus to both students and alumni, still possesses a dining hall for both men and woinen. However, this one is nicely painted with tables for eight. The kitchen has been completely rearranged so that its capacity seems greater. And too, in the hasement is a newdy installed Frigidaire, The back porch runs the length of the building and is screened in. The upstairs in Founders has also been painted and showers installed on second and third floors. The Gymnasium too has had a new coat of paint on the interior (half way up.) Its tbior is usu.illy clean and painted. Hopes are higher than ever for a new building in the near future. Cox Hall is very much the same with the exception of a number of newly painted rooms. . rchdale is the eighth wonder of the wrld. A new club room for the young men, haiidsnmely furnished, newly painted rooms, ,inil three porticoes have been added, Kunniiig p.irallel with this great physical improvement has been a general heightening of the morale of the entire college. The life in the dormitories has been as peaceful as such life can he, and the general loyalty on the part of both students and faculty has made the past year the most pleasant in the recent history of Guilford. The new buildin.gs and equipment seem to have had a beneficial effect upon everyone. I iiiiiiiin;
