NICTVTILLAN our total inadequacy to meet a11 emergency such as arose last fall. Miss Fox With a tl1orough rearra11geme11t and expansion, the Miami Hospital gTE,+,wc,t,,n .cc,,m.a,z.:a.-x.f..,1Q1 ,U now located on the seco11d floor of Bishop Hall, has adjusted itself, and did adjust itself, to meet the de1na11ds which tl1is year furnished. As a great step i11 advance i11 the health department of the university, we wish to point out the appointment of Dr. VVade McMillan of Cincinnati as resident university physician. Dr. VVade McMillan comes to us with a decided interest i11 public welfare and public health in general. His work l1ere has been beyond reproach, a11d the care and skill which he used duri11g the recent emergencies has demonstrated to Miami her need of a resident university doctor, a11d of her 11eed of Dr. McMillan. VVith a new building for a l1ospital which would be adequate to meet all demands in view of a Miami steady growtl1, the health of her students could be doubly insured-and this need, which isa crying one, would be alleviated. The stude11t body wishes to take this opportunity to thank not only all who helped during the recent epidemic, but also to express their appreciation of Dr. McMillan and Miss Fox and their services. Miami students realized as never before the value of these two people to them- selves and to tl1e university as a whole. Too much cannot be said con- cerning their skill and patience which they furnished so gladly with inadequate means in an hour of need. Their work will always be re- membered, a11d their value to the university has been well den1onstrated. Also' those Wholvolunteered their services in the recent hours of need can not be appreciated too highly. The military department deserves mention for their sane insight into conditio11s, and for their cooperation with the medical department, effecting a formidable or- ganization for the combat of influenza. , ffl- qfiy X40 .re-- 1 J -, f . f . .Y '-Q L,.x.5t7------- .A-.,..Y.Y4..-.Qi--ff+A,---f--,YF-f-.1 ,f ,f 11 .

MX - - rlsonce :Ionian HALL V lm -'QT Y 'f ' Q E- EQQE EE E E E E s . ME iiiiuriizgnwn lggiuagfagg igiggnuang Cul by caurlcsy of Cirzcirinali Enquirer The George Campbell Ogden Hall Y the will of the late Mrs. Laura Ogden VVhaling, Miami was to receive the magnificent gift of 33263000 to be used for the erection of a new dormitory for men. This dormitory, as a memorial to her brother, George Campbell Ogden of the class of 1863, was to be called the George Campbell Ogden Hall. In addition, a sum of 310,000 was set aside, the income from which to be used as a loan fund for needy students. Also Miami was made residual legatee with the Cincinnati Art Museum. This will was contested by the relatives of Mrs. Vlfhaling, and a settlement finally effected. By the final decision, the relatives will receive one-fifth of the estate, or 312S,000, which is to be deducted from the residuary legacies to Miami University and the Cincinnati Art Museum. Thus the share of Miami in the residue is reduced to practically nothing. However, as a result of the flnal decision, Miami received the full bequest of 3250000 for the erection of the George Campbell Ogden Hall, a 310,000 fund to provide for its maintenance, and 310,000 for a Stu- dents' Loan Fund, The erection of the new dormitory, which will fill a long felt need, will be started in the very near future. Throughout his entire life George Campbell Ogden was interested in Miami, her progress, ideals, and future. As a student himself, he was noted for his poetical ability. During his college career he devoted much time to literature and the finer arts. He became class poet, and his poems, many of which were written in these years, exhibit his talent in this direction. As a memorial to one who devoted his life to the pursuit of poetry and culture, the new dormitory in his honor and re- memberance is quite fitting. This dormitory, which will equal the finest student residence buildings in America, will remain a monument to his interest in Miami. Miami is deeply grateful for this great gift which should serve as a nucleus for growth in power and student body. The possibilities which it opens up to Miami are large, and according to the desires of Mrs. Whaling will be well spent, 'N V' H rr '-rc A if,irOpfwA-ff--ee-A-we f -074. 1.
