of a defective furnace which failed to

All women's organizations will hold
their regular meetings there from now
on. The Faculty Woman's club will
meet there on Wednesday afternoon,

The reopening of the building will
greatly aid the women of the school

last several weeks they have had to
hold meetings wherever it was possi
ble to find a room. Now they will have
a regular meetin,: place and much
.-nnfusion will be avoided. Several so

future, which will be held in the rooms j
