held in the Academy hall and remark
ably we'll attended, over a hundred be-
ing present. Officers Of the alumni as

been oven better than usual. The en-
rollment OF students was 1888, attend-
ance at the spring term 10Y. The
graduating class this year numbers
eleven, OF which seven are ladies and
four gentlemen. The work dono dur.
ing the year has also been very good.

Work will soon be commenced on the
new buildings for the West Liberty

priated $4,000 for this purpose. The

the recitation rooms; second floor,
chapel and recitation rosms, and in the
third story there will probably be So
