of the directors to raise at once about

Yonng's College Is going to have
a new dormitory. President Hunt
determined up on this several
months ago, bnt the first concrete
more that aasnred the success of Hr.
Hunt's plans was taken at the Pres
byterian church on Sunday morning.
After an unusually strong sermon,
by Mr. McCarty os Christian educa
tion for women, direct reference was
msde to the work and ambitions of
Young's College and Mr. Hunt was
Invited to the pulpit to explain the
needs of the Institution.
, In a very few words Mr. Hunt
made It plain (bat the future of the
college depended on the, building at
once of. a new dormitory. A sub
scription list was opened and before
the congregation wae dismissed near
ly fourteen hundred dollar* had been
subscribed In cash.
Mrs. J. Hansel! Merrill has agreed
to the merging of the Elisabeth Mer
rill Klndegarien with the oolljcge.
This munificent donation amounts
In effect to some three thousand dol
lars. The house will be moved to
the college campus, whsre It will be
used as a primary department. The
lot upon which the kindergarten
now stands will be sold and the pro
ceed* devoted to the new dormitory
The memorial will be a perpetual
scholarship to be known as the Elisa- ;

Is conservatively valued at two thou

It.has been neceisary for the manage

lack of ropm in tho dormitory de

Plans have not yet boon perfected,
but It Is expected that the new build

will furnish accommodations for
about sixty girls. It' will bo ready
by next September and there is no
