ij Cbe lb a I c ? on Zbc Spirit anb Iprootees of Swavtbmoic A COLLEGE, like any other institution or enterprise, must increase its facilities for usefulness from time to time if it is to command public confidence. It is profitable to ask ourselves occasionally what a year has brought forth for us. It is also instructive to ask this same question concerning Swartli- more. Does Swarthmore show encouraging progress since the pub- lication of the Halcyon of 1904? A statement of fact should give us an answer. Material Additions. Two sections of Wharton Hall, the new dormitory for men, have been completed. The building is well arranged, modern, and beautifully located. Fifty-five young men have found their college home therein during this year.

There is need of a new section to Wharton Hall as soon as funds are provided for the purpose. There is also need for additional dormitory accommodations for women. The new men ' s dormitory is named in honor of Joseph Wharton, President of the Board of Managers, who has made numerous gifts to Swarthmore, among them the $50,000 for this building. A new Chemistry building has been completed at a cost of nearly $35,000. This building was made possible by the consent of one of the large contributors to the endowment fund that this amount from his gift to the College should be used for this purpose. The fire of last year, which started in the Chemistry lecture room in Science Hall, probably hastened the erection of the hall of Chemistry by one year. This building has now been in use several months. There is none more complete of its kind owned by any small college in the United States. In some particulars it is superior to any
