Women AS Cornerstone Layers.

The cornerstone of the new edifce of Monticello
Seminary destroyed by fire last Noyember) was
laid at Godfrey ILL.,. June 10, with beautiful cere-
monies conceived and carried out by women, The
exercises were unique and most or" Aecuted.
The utensils, as trowels, gobfyso Oh corn wine and
OIL Golfer of documents, silver key of same, etc.,
were carried by six little girl pages who were in
attendance upon the graduating class This class,
twelve in number, conducted the service.
The class poem was read by Lila L. Haskell of
Woldoboro, Me-, and the class paper by Miss
Lydia A. Fritschee, of Brighton, Iii.
After the closing of the box and formal dev-
cry of the key to the authorities, by Miss Hannah
w. Wade of Alton the box was placed, the stone
lowered, and Miss Clara Halbert sealed it and the
conservation took place. Following which Hon.
S. V. White of Brooklyn, N. Y, delivered most
earnest address on frontier schools, giving to Mon
ticelo high praise for its past grand work and
looking forward to the future to complete noble
and successful career
The new building is to be of composite architec-
ture with some touches of medieval style. 1t will
be three stories high with lofty basement, built of
Alton white limestone trimmed with blue Bedford
stone.
