that these momentous questions must
be dealt with by an agency which can

MODEL suite AT
ACCE IS READY
Ready For Use, but Has
No Furnishings Who
VIII Respond?

Here's a chance for some enter
prising Americas firms to do some
silent boosting" for themselves and
at the same time help out one of the
community's most important institu-
lions. And this is how:
TIL new main building at the Third
District Agricultural college, which
has stood unfinished for two years
or more, is at last being put into con-
dition for use by the school for
classes and other purposes this fall.
This has been made possible by the
strenuous efforts of a few individ-
uals. Not all of the building will be
finished in time for use at the be-
ginning of the fall term, but a con-
siderable portion will be ready. In
this building, on the second floor, in
that portion which will be completed,
is located "model suite" complete
home apartment, Manned as an aid
to teaching home economics and
home making. The suite consists Of
reception room, dining room, but
lers' pantry, bedroom, bathroom with
modern plumbing and fixtures, clothes
closets, ETC., complete. What is
needed now is that this suite be fur
nished, and the college is not pre-
pared to do it. Therefore, the OPP
portunity presents itself to enter
prising local business houses.
Some time ago C. A. Carmichael
and Sons, seeing an opportunity IN
the Third District school for training
men to use the Moline tractors and
implements, and realizing that they
would thereby create demand for
them, supplied the school with sew
eral thousand dollars worth Of this
equipment. 1t has been suggested
that dealers in house furnishing
goods of various kinds might intro
duce their lines to the prospective
housewives of the community by in
stalling them as part of the furnish
ing for this model suite or apart
ment.
The entire sec)hl floor of this new
main building will be complete and
ready for use when the fall term
opens, according to Crawford Wheat
ley, treasurer of the hoard of trus-
tees of the school, who drew the plans
for the building and has supervised
its construction. On this floor will
be found the principal class rooms,
the entire Office suite, the reception
room, the principals office and the
office of the secretary to the princi-
pal. :.
Downstairs the main hall and audi
forum will be completed at this time,
leaving for later completion the IL
brary, storage room for military &C,
coutrements, the experimental
science class room, laboratory and
necessary stock room.
The building is so designed and
arranged that the basement under
the stage of the auditorium, which is
how finished, is large enough to ac-
commodate a heating plant sufficient
ly large to heat all of the buildings
on the campus.
