96 Sixteen Years at the University of Illinois housing the portraits of Captain Thomas J. Smith of Champaign, whose generous donation to the building fund made so beautiful a building possible, and his wife, to whom the building is dedicated. The working quarters for the School of Music comprise on the first floor a suite for the Director, seven studios, and two class rooms, and on the second floor eleven studios and a large library. In the attic, the balcony exits open directly into the stair halls on either side, and there are in addition, forty-nine practise rooms and a lecture room seating about one hundred. The estimated cost of the building is $450,000. The Artillery Barns were constructed in 1919-20 to provide for horses sent to the University by the Federal Government in connection with the instruction in Military Science. A special State appropriation of $25,000 was made in 1919 to construct these barns.
