"In presenting Bowles hall to the university, I had two thoughts in mind. The first was to provide a suitable memorial to my husband, who' had always had a great. love for his-Alma Mater, arid was keenly Interested in its welfare, and "who would i wish to do something that would-be a benefit and a help to the student body.

During -the latter part of his. life we had often discussed the desire to do something along these, lines. After his death in January, 1926, the carrying out of this thought devolved upon me. "After several discussions with President Campbell and Dr. David P.

Sjiroul and Mr. George Kelham went east and while there studied some of the dormitories of eastern universities, and upon' their return the plans of the present building were submitted and accepted as the ones most desirable. And right here I want to thank Mr. Kelham for his.

wise guidance and for his hearty cooperation in carrying out my ideas. "Mr second thought Was ill planning the arrangement of tlio rooms and their equipment, that Bowles hall, the initial dormitory on the campus, should set a standard; that it should not be a toiere boarding house where men would eat and sleep, but that it abould be a home, with homo surroundings, and that "the men who lived in Jt -would look upon It as such, and would carry with them Into the world, when 'they left, memories of the "home" life that they had enjoyed there dur tng tlieir university career.
