The Alice A. Shevlin Hall is an idea back of the Woman's Building. W3 lt has to do not only with physical comfort or ff . . . ,,l.f,.li?Q:ii5l1 even with health, though the building is designed nw lu 4, M , Alrzffap I QD XM' i f ' 05 for both health and comfort. lt is an idea-or . A ideal-of education for women as including more than mere training of the mind. Refinement in personal habits is part of the idealg a taste for beauty in surroundings is another part, but the greatest ele- ment of all-next to the mental training-is hard to name. Let us call it a sort of personal cultivation which women students derive from free, happy, helpful intercourse with one anotherg and which manifests itself in tact and sympathy and comprehension and the open heart. Of this ideal the Woman's Building is the incarnation. ln the degree, then, in which the Alice A. Shevlin l-lall is more than a building, the gratitude of the University to Mr. Shevlin is more than gratitude for a money gift. Mr. Shevlin has given sub- stance to an ideal. ADA coMsTocK. 6
