specially trained and paid to perform
such tasks.
The Alumnae, the Student body of

been no n?ed to have a paid collector.

A. Tigner, Dr. J. L. Beeson, and Mr.
L. S. Fowler, used the plans submitted
by Mr. MacEachron and built the

keep the memory green of the man
who gave hia youth, his manhood,
bis all that Georgia girls might have
a better opportunity for preparation
for life.
It is a beautiful .and commodious
building. It is built of hollow tile,
faced with brick and is entirely fire
proof. There i*j a broad front porch
bordered by white Corinthian col
