No. 30 South Building-. The president's house, to replace the one destroyed by fire in 1886, was completed in the summer at a cost of $15,000. This is a hand some colonial building-, thoroughly well constructed and conveniently designed. Such a building became a necessity, largely because of the inadequacy of the former residence of the official head of the Univer sity for the entertainment of its dis tinguished guests. The former dissecting hall was destroyed by fire in June, entailing a loss of about $800, on which there was $450 of insurance, The build ing was immediately replaced so as to have all in readiness for the classes in the fall. The new frame building is 70 by 32 feet and cost about $1600. It is an improvement in every respect over the old one and will doubtless prove quite satis factory for the present. In accordance with the resolution passed at the Commencement meet ing of the trustees, work has been commenced upon a biological labor atory, to be called Davie Hall m honor of Gen. Wm. R. Davie, "whose unselfish and unremitting labors in behalf of the Urrversity did so much to tide it over its early vtars and to mould it for its future that he has justly been called the Father of the University." The building committee consists of Jul ian S. Carr, Alfred M. Scales, George G. Stephens for trustees, and Henry V. Wilson and Francis P. Venable for the faculty. INCREASED COST OF LIVING. The average of expenses at the University has increased consider ate v since the the bee-ining of mv administration in 1900. During the session of 1900-'01 I asked for item ized accounts,- and estimates and reports were handed in by several hundred students. A fair average then for those who, under scholar ships, paid no tuition was $150; for others it was $250. While I have made no complete investigation I should say that these figures should now be changed to $250 and $350 respectively. It is not easy to account for this except on the principle of a general change in the standards of living, together with increased cost of board. Then follow some interesting statistics in regard to self-help, a statement concerning the raising of the entrance requirements, and a recommendation that a Teachers College be established.
