NIVERSITY HALL,-that's its official name. But there are generations of Ohio State men and women who will always call it The Main Building, in memory of the days when it stood pre-eminent in the campus landscape, without the many impres- sive architectural rivals that now are neighbor to it. It isn't very handsome, the old Main Building, though it holds up its head proudly even in the presence of the Library itself, as though it were determined that the standards and achievements of the elder day should still be recognized and represented in and through it. I am still the center of thingsf, it insists, as I was in the beginning and have always been. Witliixi my walls beats the heart of the University. Here come the students to place their names first on the college records, and here they return to receive the seal on their diplomas. If you want to know the history of Ohio State men, you must come to me. Would you speak with the Presi- dent, it is my ivy-shaded door you must enter. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. As for what comes between, I listen to my tower clock tick away the hours, and let my neighbors attend to that. A Thoughtless ones have hoped that the old Main Building, so out of keeping with more modern structures, might be pulled down to make room for a finer successor. Far be the day when that happens! It is too old a friend, this ancient but sturdy building, it connects too intimately with the foundations of the University, is too much a part of our history, for us ever to look on calmly while its walls crumble into a heap of bricks and mortar. Its age, its history, its associations, all give it a claim upon our devotion to which we cannot fail to respond. WILLIAM L. GRAVES.
