BEQUESTS O P T H E SUPERVISING ARCHITECT.

President Abbott presented the following letter from Professor James M. White, supervising architect:

URBANA, I I I . , March 18, 1911.

Mr. W. L. Abbott, 139 Adams Street, Chicago, III.: I enclose estimate of improvements which should not be deferred until summer if they can be authorized now, because a great deal of work which it is necessary to do during the summer cannot be done until certain of these changes have been made. Items 14 to 22 should receive immediate attention if the electrical department' is to have time to remodel its laboratory before the opening of the fall semester. Items 1 to 13 could be deferred and also items 23-25; but in anticipation of the large amount of work to be done during the summer, which it is almost always impossible to complete by the middle of September, I hope you will be able to authorize them now. I presume all of the items except 1 to 4 would have to be charged to the general fund. Yours truly,

JAMES M. WHITE,

Supervising

Architect.
