The quiet repose of the old college goes far towards creating the scholarly cultivated atmosphere that invests Kenyon, and its external .aspect which attracts the eye and touches the irnaginatioinf' endows it with a large relining influence. In a country in which historical back- ground is, for some generations at least, irreparably lacking, external aspect must count for much, and certainly no college in America has a more venerable air than Kenyon. Witli the exception of the institutions, which date back to the colonial days, no American college has a richer for more stimulating past. Its traditions of culture and its social stand- ing are alike as stimulating and as exacting as can be found in any col- lege east or west. A. L. D. I5

,- I so named because built by the Church of the Ascension in New York City. In this building are the halls of the literary societies, the recita- tion rooms, the laboratories, and the observatory. Nearly all the students room in Old Kenyon, which is now seen -directly in front, and, to the right, is Hanna Hall. The latter, a recent ,gift of Senator Hanna, is now in process of erection. It is a handsome building of Berea sand-stone, and is equipped with all modern conven- iences. It is hoped that Hanna Hall will be ready for occupancy next fall. The retention of the dormitory is of great advantage in promoting the organic life of the college. Of mediaeval collegiate architecture, Old Kenyon, Ascension and Hanna Hall could never be mistaken for anything but college buildings, for their architects were not actuated by the eco- nomical spirit, which has induced the architects of most American col- leges to provide for possible emergencies in which the college authorities might wish to dispose of their property for commercial or public pur- lposes. All the college buildings are of stone. 14
