Most of the work to be done is on
the lower floor or basement. The
larger part of this being the audi-
torium, which is about half plaster-
ed. Another important thing about
this new building is that we will
have real slate blackboards to use,
most of which is up now. There will
be more than 140 radiators in the
building.
One can hardly realize the size of
the building unless he has been

had this privilege I will give a brief
summary of what is on each floor.
