Lindenwood Dedicates A Lillie P. Roemer Fine .-lrls Building Q This year, Founders' Day had a speeial significance for all people who in the past or present have been connected with Linden- wood College. On Thursday, October 26, l939, the Lillie P. Ptoemer Fine Arts Build- ing, built to honor the memory of Mrs. John L. Hoemer who came to Lindenwood in l9l4 and stayed as dean of' students until her dealh in August, l938, was dedicated. The building, itself, is beautiful. lispe- cially lovely is the Lillie P. lloemer memorial room, which is filled with some of Mrs. lioemeris own furniture. Un the first floor are studios for the music faculty. On the second floor is a large art studio, several smaller ones, and the art library. On the lower floor are practice rooms for music students. On Founders' Day, after the morning ad- dress, Dr. Roemer, Dr. John Maelvor, presi- dent of the board of directors, Dr. Gipson, and Dr. Sam Higginbottom, speaker of thc morning, led the faculty, choir, guests, and student. body to the front of the newly- finished fine arts building. With merely a few words from Dr. Roemer, Dr. Nlaclvor, Dr. Gipson, Dr. Linnemann, and Dean Thomas, the Lillie P. Hoemer Fine Arts Building was dedicated, but all ol' Lindenwood's past and present students realized that here again was outward evidence of the continual progress of Lindcnwood College. Page 6
