Goodwin Hall.

Some of the new buildings provided
for by the last legislature are now
nearing completion, while others, in
cluding the Engineering Building, will
probably be built within the coming
year.
The most notable addition to the
campus at present is Goodwin Hall, a
building of three stories and base
ment, on the west end of the drill
ground. This is a dormitory of sixty-
five rooms. It is designed to be heat
ed with hot water, and is said to be
built in accordance with the mos'
modern ideas. The cost is $50,0u0.00.
It is named for a member of the Four
teenth Legislature, which made the
first appropriation for A. & M.
A building which has been needed
for a long time is the new Natatorium,
situated back of the old “Nat,” and
north of the Textile Building. It is a
roomy structure, built partly of brick,
with the remaining portion of wood,
covered with plaster. It will be heat
ed by steam or hot water. A tunnel
is now under construction for the va
rious pipes. This tunnel will run un
der every shower, and will do away
with the necessity of tearing up the
floor to fix the connections. There
will be forty-two showers and the
same number of dressing rooms. The
stalls and the floor will be of marble.
The Veterinary Hospital, built at
tractively of wood and plaster, is on
the corner of the field, northwest of
the mule barn. It is divided into box
stalls and rooms, everything being ar
ranged for the clinical treatment of
horses and cattle. It is 135 feet long
and 35 feet wide. There is a concete
floor throughout, and the whole struc
ture is built in the most sanitary man
ner.
The large Farm Machinery Building
is just back of the Chemical Building.
Though a frame building, it is built
for strength and durability. It will
have place for the farm implements,
which are loaned to the college, and
there will also be a few section rooms.
Money will soon be available for
si veral other new buildings, among
them being the Engineering Building,
Avhiich will cost $80,000.00, and the
Feed Control Building, the cost of
which will be about $100,000.00.
