It ? LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE- 1914 ( ]] The President ' s Residence We can justly be proud of the house occupied by the president. It is a comparatively new building, having been erected several years ago. President Funkhouser was the first president to occupy the home. It contains all the modern conveniences, including heat, light, and water. It is situated on the northwest corner of the campus and faces Sheridan Avenue. Every graduate of Lebanon Valley recalls with pleasure the vari- ous social functions which in the past have taken place within the four walls of this home. .„,. . ■s i y

1 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE- 1914 U j pfifk rh iiii J ? Academy The Academy building donated in 1866 is the original building of the institution. For many years it was used only as a dormitory, but last summer it was remodeled and repainted, with the result that it now com- pares favorably with the rest of our buildings. Almost all of the prepara- tory classes recite in this building. Besides the recitation rooms, it con- tains a suite of living rooms for the principal and his family, dormitory ac- commodations for about forty students, and several suites for the use of married students and their families. It also contains a large parlor, con- taining a piano, etc., for the use of the residents of the building and a room in which the meetings of the Academy literary society (The Soph- roneon) are held.

f d LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE- 1914 Q ] ii n ill n lllllllil I i iiiiiii JZf New United Brethren Church The new United Brethren Church was dedicated on November 17, 1912. It is situated on the northwest corner of College Avenue and Main Street. The edifice is constructed of King of Prussia marble and all the woodwork is of solid oak, which, altho simple in itself, aids in giving the building an imposing appearance on the inside as well as on the outside. At the southeast corner of the structure is a massive tower eighty-four feet high. The main auditorium has a seating capacity of about 1600. By drawing aside the curtains which separate it from the Sunday School room the total capacity can be increased to 2500. Each class has a separate room but by opening doors and throwing aside cur- tains a view of the pulpit can be secured from all parts of them. In the basement are rooms for the Junior, Intermediate and Primary depart- ments, a large social room, a well equipped kitchen, and an adequate heating plant. The total cost of the new church was $75,000, all of which has already been subscribed. - .m; ' = ■ wB. : Vy i,„ 4y- ,.»„ ■■■:zA.
