8 PIEDMONT HIGH SCHOOL only for commencement exercises and other public gatherings. It has been recently equipped with opera chairs and new stage scenery. In addition to the new central there are five others: Elam Hall, a building thirty by fifty two stories high which was erected dur¬ ing the session of 1909-1910. In this building there are eleven dormitory rooms. The upper story is used by the Musigmarhon- ian and the Pierian Literary Societies. Newton Hall contains twenty rooms and a basement. It is used as a dormitory for boys. Both Elam and Newton Halls are heated by stoves. Schenck Hall has three well lighted and well ventilated recita¬ tion rooms, a parlor, thirty by thirty for the girls. In the base¬ ment there is a dining-room thirty-three by seventy, a kitchen with some conveniences, pantries, store-rooms and a furnace room. The whole of the upper story is used as a dormitory for girls. It has toilets, electric lights, steam heat and good ventilation. Ad¬ joining Schenck Hall and attached to it by porches are rooms for the Principal and his family. With the lady teachers, the ma¬ tron, the lady principal and the principal of the school all practi¬ cally in the same building with the boarding girls, care and pro¬ tect ion of the girls is better and more thorough than in some schools. The Auditorium is a large, handsome building of wooden con¬ struction, well ventilated and lighted. It has a large gallery, a wide, deep stage, up-to-date stage scenery and is seated with opera chairs. The Waters Library building was completed thirteen years ago. This building, by the bequest of Miss Nancy Waters, was erected in memory of her brother, Captain A. G. Waters, a brave Con¬ federate soldier, killed in the battle of Gains Mill, near Richmond, Va., July 27, 1862. The building, thirty by thirty-six, two stories, built of pressed brick, the smallest of our buildings adorns the crest of the hill. The library is a fit monument for one who gave his life for native land—more appropriate by far than glistering
