rooms, one for small animals and the other the Equine Clinic room. which are equipped with all the necessities of a modern hospital. The second Hoor com- prises a hospital for smallganimals, Canine Operating Room, Instrument Room, Sterilizing Room, and a Dark Room for eye diseases, etc. This floor contains three large non-contagious wards and two separate wards for contagious diseases. Turning to the Southern Wfing of the building are to be found the modern Equine Surgical Vlfard, Sterilizing Room, Dressing Room, and a room containing a most efficient X-ray apparatus. Three large wards for stabling animals, and a fourth isolation ward. A modern farriery is also a feature of this building. On the second floor is a commodious assembly hall, which contains a large stage, open fireplace, and ante-room for catering and checking purposes. The new East Wfing meets one's vision immediately upon entering the archway, its attractiveness being increased by a huge clock, presented in May, 1911, b'y the Class of 1912. This section of the building includes a large amphitheatre with a modern stereopticon machine, also several smaller rooms, coat rooms, etc. One of the principal features of this section is the Post Mortem Hall, hnished in white enamel, containing special appliances for the handling of animals, receptacles for cleansing specimens, suitable tables, and a system of water sprays so placed as to entirely Hush the interior, and all other modern appliances of necessity. This Post Mortem Hall is far in advance of anything of its kind in this country. On the second floor are two large light dissecting rooms, made accessible by elevator, several small laboratories, etc. In january of 1910, Dr. Louis A. Klein succeeded the late Dr. Pearson as Dean. In September of 1910, Dr. Karl Freidrich Meyer accepted the new Chair of Pathology, and in the fall of 1911 became Instructor in Veterinary Bacteriology and Serum Therapy. The growth of the Hospital is manifested by the fact that the number of cases treated each year are steadily increasing, thus providing the students with a sufficient amount of practical work. The Department has passed through many trying ordeals, and it is with these facts in mind that we feel justly proud of our new home, as we view it to-day. In faculty and instructors it is foremost, and in equipment it is far su- perior to any other veterinary institution in this great country to whi.ch we are so loyal. During the twenty-eight years of its existence it has graduated men from all parts of the world, and who stand as a monument to its excellency, not only professionally, but in all walks of life. In reviewing its career, we can proudly and truthfully say that its develop- ment has been wonderful, its reputation world-wide, and we feel justified in the prediction of most brilliant prospects. It behooves each one of us to make manifest our appreciation of the Vet- erinary Department of the University of Pennsylvania by moulding our lives after those grand and good men to whom it stands as a high tribute. Thus will me ultimately realize the high calling of our profession and glorify our Alma L' ater. I4

ship by Dr. John Marshall, who held the chair until 1895. Dr. Huidelcoper, how- ever, continued his lectures until 1890. In 1891 Dr. Charles VVilliams was ap- pointed lecturer, his successor being Dr. Leonard Pearson, who was called to the chair in October, 1892. In 1893 Dr. John W1 Adams, A.B., V.M.D., was ap- pointed to fill the Chair of Surgery and Obstetrics, inade vacant by the resigna- tion of Dr. Zuill. In 1895 Dr. Leonard Pearson- became Dean of the Veterinary Faculty. ' Previous to the fall of 1891, no free clinics were held, members of Clinical Staff having received remuneration for advice o-r operations. That fall free clinics were established, and the Hospital made rapid growth. During the year ending August 31, 1900, over 4,000 cases were treated in the Hospital, as com- pared to 500 in 1884. - An expenditure Olf 312,000.00 was made in 1893, in the provision of a sepa- rate kennel, laboratory and classroom, located on the second floor. In 1899 the Veterinary Department relinquished its buildings and holdings to the Trustees in their search for a suitable site for the New Medical Depart- ment, thereby bringing all the medical buildings together in one portion of the Campus, the Trustees agreeing to secure a suitable location for the Department and its Hospital upon a public thoroughfare in connection with the University Grounds, with buildings equivalent to those relinquished. In the summer of 1901 the buildings were razed, the Department moving into the old two-story car barn on VVoodland Avenue, between Thirty-eighth and Thirty-ninth Streets. This new site is 260 feet .along Wfoodland Avenue and a depth of 210 feet to Delaney Street. The property was purchased from the Eli K. Price Estate at an expenditure of 5lS46,000. This location was well adapted to fulfil the needs of the School. It was the desire of the Trustees that the new ho-me should be ready for occupancy by the fall of 1903, but owing to the many unforseen difficulties. breaking ground for the new building was de- layed until the fall of 1906. Through the many efforts of the late Dean, Dr. Leonard Pearson, the Legislature of the State of Pennsylvania made an appro- priation, which was necessary in order to go on with the buildings. This appro- priation was sufficient to erect the Wfest and South VVings, which were com- pleted in the spring of 1909. The East Vtfing was completed in the early part of 1910, the work made possible by a second State appropriation. In all probability the remaining North VVing will be erected in the course of a year. VVhen com- pleted, the buildings will form a hollow square with a large courtyard in the center. The structures are fireproof and display the science of the most modern architecture. The Thirty-ninth Street side presents a large archway, through which all clinical cases enter. North of this entrance are situated the General Adminis- trative Offices, which are in communication with the office of the Dean. A well- equipped library is also a feature of this fioorg adjoining same is a large lecture room. The second floor is devoted to laboratories and offices of the State Live Stock Sanitary Board and the Department of Mill: Hygiene, while the third fioor comprises the Bacteriological Laboratory and nicely fitted quarters for the Resident House Surgeon. South of the entrance the modern, well-kept Hospital is situated. In it are found the Office of the Hospital and Resident Surgeon, which are in connection with an up-to-date Pharmacy. Passing through these, one enters two large clinic I3
