THIS BEAUTY DINING ROOM Food for thought . . THE FALLS Mrs. C. E. Graham and her son, Mr. Allen Graham, gave $25,000 to build a concrete dam and bridge to replace the old wooden one at the south end of Lake Susan. The lake was named Susan for Mrs. Graham, her mother, her daughter, and her granddaughter. MUSIC BUILDING The present Music Building, originally the college infirmary, was a gift from Dr. R. C. Anderson. The building was rebuilt in 1942 and changed into the Music Build- ing in the fall of 1960. It now serves the dual role of a music building and a clinic.

rv A HERITAGE LIBRARY Miss Cora A. Stone, a former missionary to Japan, helped establish a community library which contained 1,300 volumes. After Gaither was built, arrangements were made for these books to be placed in the college library in Gaither Hall, and the library was to be known as the Cora A. Stone Li- brary. With this collection of books, $1,500 was given to help in the maintenance of the library. ANDERSON AUDITORIUM In April, 1940, the old Anderson Auditorium burned, but under the supervision of Dr. Anderson, it was rebuilt in time for conferences in the latter part of June. The new fireproof building was named in honor of Dr. Anderson.
