But the undermining and charging

a private water works plant for their
fire protection and culinary purposes;
the completion of an ideal infirmary
building and other progressive moves,

The splendid main building addition
began in June, 1902, and occupied since
the winter holidays, as is we'll known,
is part of a grand plan outlined for
st. Mary's further increase in massive
and symmetrical proportion. These
changes have left their impress not
only in the attractive new building
which stands there so massively, but
also in the approaches which one
! would not recognize. New drives have
been laid out, new lawns have begun
! to spread their carpet Of green, great
shade trees that stood at familiar
places a year ago are now standing
| sentinel along the broad central ave-

ers and landscape workers. The re-
suits have been remarkable thus far
and nothing is being spared that will
add to the beauties of the already
beautiful place.
