Mr. Editor: Here is a piece I
wish you would publish in your
paper. You might call it ''What
Wuithrop Needs."'
1. Larger Dining Hall, with
larger kitchen, store room, and
cold storage plant.
2. Larger Auditorium.
3. Scieuce Hall, with ade
quate equipment.
4. Larger Gymnasuir, with
swimming pool, runuiug track,
and bowling alley.
5. Propagation House and
Greenhouse for teaching the stu
dents horticulture, etc.
6. Young Women's Christian
Association Hall. f
7. Larger Power House with
additional boilers.
8. Larger Laundry.
9. Model Home, where girls
may be made responsible for
every detail of housekeeping,
even to buying of provisions, etc.,
so that they may receive that
practical training in housekeep
ing that will enable them to
make and manage a home smooth
ly aud successfully.
10. Rural School House, where
our students may be tauglil how
