The home of the president is spacious and beautifully arranged and lends itself most attractively to entertaining. President and Mrs. Walter B. Whit-comb, Dr. and Mrs. Kirkpatrick, Air. Olson, of the Trustees, were present, as well as almost all of the faculty members their husbands and wives. The occasion was a _s_n.cces3 in every way, Eleven new members have joined our faculty this year. They come from all parts of our country and have received their training at various higher educational institutions. The library staff has a valuable addition in the person of Aliss George. She is to be the cataloguer. Her home was in Massachusetts, and as a child she always wanted to be a mathematics teacher. However, she became vm-y much interested in library work and specialized in that line in three of the largest colleges in the East and Aliddle West. She became connected with the Oregon Agricultural College and had been with that institution eight years when she came to Bellingham. Of course she hasn't been in 0ur extremely Northwest country so very long, but she likes the work and is positive she will like our city, so everything points towards a pleasant stay for Miss George in Bellingham. Aliss Long, who supplants Aliss Moffat in Physical Education, conies from Pittsburg, Kansas, but she by no means Aaims that, city for her home now, for she has given Northwestern Washington that title. She taught eleven years in Everett before going to Kansas to teach. When Aliss Long returned to Washington she felt she couldn't breathe enough of either the fresh mountain air or the salt sea air. It is interesting to not^ that Aliss Long's brother was a military man and long before she had ever contemplated specializing in physical education she delighted in getting out his (Continued on Page Two) As the Ajessenger goes to press the present enrolln.cut of the school is above 720. This is a much larger number of students than at any first three quarters of last year. Of tin's number, 209 are Seniors, 40 of whom will graduate in November. Special and third-year students are more numerous than before, while a few are working for their fourth year diploma. Also, more women give a husband's name as guardian than during the prc\ious year.

Although no tabulated statistics are available yet, a hasty glance at the records show students here from in«i:y states: Indiana, Nebraska, Arizona, California, Oregon, Minnesota etc. Afany ha.ve attended the universities or normal school of these states. But such magic as is found in repeating the "home towns" of cur students: Dungeness Anaconda, Entiat, Santa Monica, Alaguway, Omaha, Hoodsport, Tumwater, etc., along with such everyday names as Bellingham, Everett, Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, etc. When the statistics are worked out the Messenger will print the survey of students as regards home states, etc. B. S. N. S.- The Methodist, Presbyterian and Baptist churches will hold welcoming receptions for the Normal students Sat-, urdav evening. Residents, as well as students and faculty, have been watching with growing interest the completion of the new dormitory. The need of a new building to house the ever increasing number of students has been keenly recognized during the past fe-.v years. After futile efforts this need is soon to be realized. At the last meeting of the state legislature, appropriations for this pin-pose were fixed at $250,000. The initial cost of the construction alone nearing $190,- 000. ids have already been let for the furnishings. The exterior architecture, characterized by simplicity, is in unification with the other building of our campus. Upon entering the building one is impressed by the attractiveness and home-like accommodations it affords; The sixty-five bedrooms will furnish ample room to care for one hundred and thirty-four girls. A novel feature of the bedrooms is the built-in dresser and study table, each room being provided with hot and cold water, and extensive closet space. Nurses' headquarters will be situated on the second floor: the recreation room and dean's office will be located to the left of the entrance on the main floor. New York Decorators to be Employed. The culminating point of interest of the entire building is the spacious dining hall on the ground floor. Adding to the comfort and beauty is the picturesque fireplace of glazed brick, situated at the rear of the room. The decorations are to be unique in every respect. The ornamented freize, designed by New York artists, will cite important events in history. Every student should be proud of the new building and looking forward with eagerness to the' opening of the new Bdens Hall, which will be ready for occupancy about the first of January.
