paint the ••all in the downstairs lobby of
Lilian Hal 11 the walls err v?oolworlc in the
north and south halls of FIlian Hall: the
walls of our so-called chapel: the walls,
ceiling, and woodwork of the dining hall:
the walls, ceiling, mi woodwork in the
kitchen! the heck entrance hall of our dormi-
tory; the woodwork and walls of the two
administrative offices in Kllian Hall; the
walls, ceiling,-and woodwork in two dormi-
tory rooms. The paint used on the walls
and ceiling will be flat oil paint; on the
woodwork gloss enamel will be used. One
coat will be applied on plaster surfaces
and woodwork,
2, The lighting in thej three classrooms
in our so-called Science Building is wholly
inadequate. We, therefore, request that we
be given 1520,00 to instaj.1 fluorescent lights
in those classrooms. At the present time
the rooms are entirely too drab for effective
teaching. Originally we obtained an esti-
mate from a local electrician on the purchase
and installation of these lights. His bid
approximated *1,000.00, We have since de-
termined that we can buy those same lights
