Anderson Anatomical Hall and dental
annex, new buildings just completed

were afterwards inspected by the
great assemblage, and many were the
congratulations paid President George
W. Hubbard, to whose untiring efforts
are due the great success of this insti-
tuition. The anatomical hall is the
gift of one of the graduates of the
school, DIR. ]. w. Anderson, of Dallas
Texas, who contributed $4,000 in cash
for its erection.
Exercises incident to the dedication
of the buildings were held in the Me
harry auditorium, and there were

prominent persons as has seldom
