walls are a rough Band finish plaster
and are tin Mid slightly down to the
chair rail 'and are painted a dark
brown from the chair rail to the floor.
The wood work ia stained?a. medium
brown. All rooms except those for the
first grade are equipped with combi
nation -steel frame walnut finished
desks. The first, grade? rooms are
equipped with kindergarten tables and
chairs. Each room also has a teachers
desk and a built in teachers cabinet.
There are nd" clashes In style' or color
of room and equipment and a maxi
mum of beauty and service are ob
tained at the same time.
,The library and study hall are on
the second floor at the front. The two
rooms together are about 28 feet b*
40 feet, and are only partly separated j
by a wall. The two can be administered J
as one or two as the occasion demands.
Shelving for books is built in to match
the other wood work.
The offices and teachers rest room
are just over the main entrance and
just above the first "main floor level.
The auditorium with a seating ca
pacity of S00 people *is entered from
the front corridor of the first floor.
The balcony is reached from the coc^.
rldor of the second floor or by stair
ways in the rear of the auditorium.
The walls are a plain sand finish
blocked to give the impression of stone.
A motion picture booth is part of the
structure in the balcony. The stage
is 25 feet deep with a width of 40 feet.
It is sufficient to allow any indoor per
formance that a school would care to
give. The scenery includes drawing
room and woodland scenes, front cur
tain. garden alea. picture screen, etc.
Both the Toot and ceiling lights on the
stage are prorMed with three circuits
allowing the use of three colors of
light, so that any lighting effect ob
tained in a city theatre is possible
Corridors leading from the main cor
ridors in the wings connect the stage
with the other part of the building
making all class rooms available for
dressing rooms during any theatrical
performance. The general effect of the
stage and auditorium is hardly to be
surpassed anywhere.
On the ground floor are located the
special rooms for other than regular
grade and academic work. There is a
large shop for vocational agriculture
and a department consisting of food
and clothing laboratories and dining
room for home economics. There Is
a good laboratory and a lecture room
fo rscience and medical and dental
clenic rooms. All the special rooms
are thoroughly equipped with suitable
furniture and apparatus for their va
rious purposes.
There is also on the ground floor
near the front entrance a special room
set aside for the uses of the communi
ty. This will at all times be available
for any meetings pertaining to educa
tion or civic betterment.
The gymnasium is under the audi
torium and has a 16 ft pitch under the
lowest beam. An observation balcony
on the level of the main corridor floor
has space underneath it sufficient for
showers and dressing rooms.
There ^are two sanitary drinking
fountains conveniently located on each
floor.
mere are eight toilet rooms in the
building, two each on the ground and
second floors and four on the first
floor. They are all well lighted and
ventilated and those on the ground
floor are accessible from the play
ground. All toilets have tile floors ; nd
tile walls four feet up from the floor.
The building is heated by vapor
generated in the furnace room under
the left wing. Large Bteam mains in
conduits under the floor convey the
vapor to the radiators in the various
rooms
An elcctric time system consisting
of a master clock and auxiliary clocks
in eve:*y room will keep the time. Two
sets of gauges inside and one set out
side wl'.l automatically sound the sig
nals for the various schedules.
The whole building is equipped with
electric fixtures ample in number and
type to furnish sufficient light to make
it as usable at night a* in day time.

ing and money upon this building. It
is a building without any apology. Bo
it represents more than brick and
mortar, the finest material and the
best skilled labor. It is the thought
of the dreamers made real. It Is the
translation of a soul-compelling Ideal:
it Is love beautiful in action. It will
stand there through the long years as
a memorial or a monument to a man
who had caught the true meaning of
life. For him, (to use the words of
Dr. Frank Crane), life Is not a prob
lem, It Is a task. Life Is an art. not a
science. But at bottom life Is not so
much a task as It is an opportunity.
Llftl is something to do. not something
to learn.
The Motive In It All
I henrd Dr. E. C. Brooks say that he
asked Mr. Vann why he wan doing thi?
great thing. He said Mr. Vann replied
that It was for the glory of God and
the good of mankind. Here Is "a mo
tive big enough to float a battleship."
Not until we com? to appreciate the
motive power can we appreciate con
duct and achievement.
Here la one who has sought to make
the world * bit iftore beautiful and bet
ter because he has betn In It.

Heralds of Progress
ll was less than a century ago that a woman of tlu>
middlcwest wrote to her cousin in New York:
"Last winter I was told of a curious new device for
making fire. It consisted of small splinters of wood with
tips of ?ome substance that bursts into flame whhen rub
bed on a rough surface. If you can procure some of them
for me I will be grateful.
Alatc'.es were in general use in Europe for years he
fore being introduced into this country. There was no
means for spreading such news rapidly.
Today the new invention that contributes to com
fort or convenience is quickly kuown the country over.
Advertising conveys the information. The fanner's
wile of Ne\v Mexico or Nevada is as well posted on these
things as the city woman of the East.
They arc heralds of progress, with real news for you
and your family. They save you time, lighten your
work and enable you to obtain the .utmost for the

- THE B. Y. P. r. CORSER
How do you spend the Sabbath day?
As the Lord made the earth in six
days and rested the seventh even so
we should abstain on that day from
secular occupations and concern our
selves with sacred and eternal things.
The Hebrews were commanded to
keep this day holy.
What little sin is it that makes the
Sabbath unholy for you? Is it joy riding
social calling, lack of interest in Sun
day school and B. Y. P. U., or does
music tickle your feet or have you got
Punkin Center on the brain.
These little things are the most
dangerous of all sins for they are not
looked on as sin by those indulge.
Therefore they never ask forgiveness
for things of this kind and surely the/
never get forgiveness and a life time of
sufh living will send any soul to Hell.
