D<. Gill has continued the meet
ings in' which he answers the
Bib ical questions put to him by the
students, and these meetings have
always pioved of the greatest value.
1 ie statistics are :
Total enrollment
Total number classes
PI ms are on foot to add largely to
this enrollment before tne end of the
college year, and between the prepa
ration and the publishing of this re
port several classes will be started.
The plans for next year contemplate
reaching she five hundred maik. A
much needed feature is a full Bible
reference library, funds for the pur
chase of which are lacking.
t JCIAL
As is customary, the Association
gave a reception to the entering class
on tne evening of Sept. 14th in the
; rvimory. Addiesses weie made by
General Beaver, Dr. Welsh, Coach
■Fennell and several of the students.
It is estimated that over eight hun
, tired were present A social held at
.'1 ta"ksgiving in Room 529 pioved
veiy pleasant to the large number
who attended.
The entertainment course as a
.whole was the best ever given at
Slate College, despite the disappoint
ment at the cancellation or the last
’number. Why these entertainments
are so poorly patronized by the
Student body is a question most
difficult to answer.
Until larger and more suitable
quar'ers are piovided, it will be im
possible to equip a game room that
•will be at all adequate, the present
room being entirely too small If
the room adjoining No. 277, which
is at present unoccupied, could be
secured for a secretary’s private
proom and the parti ion between
rooms No. 275 and 277 could be re-
TTi'oVed, it would afford at least a
temporary relief for the pre.,ent
overcrowded condition.

at this time as to the finances Of the
Association. Such a report will be
published later. Suffice to say tnat
the Entertainment Coutse netted a
rather meager sum, and one in no
way commensurate with the cbatac

crease in membership will undoubted •
ly help the Association financially:-

have been added, chiefly along the
lines of Bible Study reference and

kindness of E’-of. Willard and otheis
in loaning a number oi most usetul
books.
