Within two weeks the large build
ings of the Third District Agricultur
al College will be practically com
pleted. Such was the gratifying state
ment made the district board of trus
tees assembled in Americus yester
day to discuss affairs of the schooi.
A visit was likewise made to the
college farm in the southern surburbs
of Americus, and the twelve trustees
composing the party expressed satis
faction at the progress there.
Among the trustees attending the
meeting were the following:
Trustees Attending:
Mr. Daniel of Sumter, Mr. Stapleton,
of Webster, Mr. Heys of Macon, Mr.
Fitzgerald of Stewart, Mr. Steed of
Taylor, Mr. Heard of Dooly, Mr. Biv
ins of Crisp, Mr. Hall of Lee, Mr.
Warren of Wilcox, Mr. Bridges of
Schley. Mr. Hughes of Twiggs, Mr.
Paulk of Beu Hill.
The counties of Pulaski, Crawford
and Houst'.n were not represented by
their trustees.
Hon. John M. Collum, principal of
the college, accompanied the trustees
to the farm and gave them detailed
Information concerning the buildings
and the work still required.
Nearing Completion.
The two main buildings, as stated
above, are very nearly fllnished, and
will be entirely completed within a
week or a little more. The work per
formed appears to be of excellent
character, and the trustees later ex
pressed satisfaction thereat.
One omlslon noted, and a serious
one, Is the absence of dining room
and kitchen, said one of the trustees,
In telling of the visit to the college.
He said that absolutely no provision
for these very necessary adjuncts of
a boarding school had been made.
Where Is the Kitchen!
Surely the building plane must In
clude a kitchen wherein the girls
can exhibit their handwork, and a din
ing hall wherein the hungry students
may regale themselves thrice dally.
Senator Stapleton, In speaking af
terwards, of the visit of the trustees,
said that this Important matter was
discussed at length. There Is, he said,
no evidence of a dining hall or kit
chen In either of the main buildings
now nearing completion.
If such omission has been made
It will be quickly corrected. Per
haps the diulng hall and kitchen are
Intended to be located In some other
building on the farm.
Discuss Itoutlnc Matters.
The trustees, upon returning from
the college farm, held a business meet
ing wherein they discussed matters
of routine only. They were highly
gratified at the prospect of early com
pletion of the bulldlngB and opening
of the school in January.
Indications point to a large atten
dance,'even taxing the capacity of
the buildings. Every one of the fif
teen counties of the Third district
will send pupils there.
