Biennial ART
Period	That phase of education which is attracting
most attention everywhere, at present, is that , of the practical arts—handwork in wood, in clay, in the making of tin can toys, in the weaving of mats and baskets. Especially in Arizona it is being found that the appeal to the Mexican children can be made best through work done by the hands. On this account the art work in our school should be strengthened. In the way of permanent equipment ־ we are asking for the following:	One kiln for firing

DINING HALL
Because of the lack of a suitable refrigerator, considerable unnecessary expense is at present incurred in the dining hall. In the first place, food is wasted which might be used at a later period, if it could be preserved. In the second place, meats must now be bought in small quantities. In the third place, the care of butter and eggs and perishable ,vegetables during the summer session, when the drain upon our dining hall is greatest, is extremely difficult. Because of the low cost of operation
after it is once installed, we recommend an
ammonia refrigerating plant, costing״.״״״״.״$ 2,000.00 $ .

LAUNDRY
It has been the custom in this institution to send all of the State laundry (which includes bedspreads, table cloths and napkins) to the local laundry. This service is unsatisfactory in quality and the cost is high.
It is recommended that power washing machines, an extractor and a flat work ironer be installed in the basement of one of the dormitories until an industrial arts building is pro-

RESIDENCE (President’s)
Modern practice demands that the presi- 1921-1922 dent and his family reside on the campus. The reasons for this are obvious, and the State has *provided such residences at the other institutions of higher learning. At present the presi-dent of the Northern* Arizona Normal School is living in the boys’ dormitory in quarters
which are fairly comfortable but which permit
of little social intercourse with the town, with the faculty or with the students. ׳ Also, the president’s energy is dissipated in caring for the petty details of dormitory administration, which might well be done more cheaply. In
addition, it might be said that while comfortable, these quarters scarcely, measure up to the
dignity of the position. It is respectfully urged that this building be erected at once. The architect’s estimate for its construction and furnishing is......״״״......................15,000.00 $ .......—

CAMPUS
In the last biennium a fine start has been made in developing the grounds of the Northern Arizona Normal School. Previous to this time, however, little had been done. It is believed by all concerned that this work is one of the most important things that can be done.
Certainly the absence of lawns, trees and shrubbery, walks and drives, athletic field, sufficient tennis courts, etc., has discouraged students from attending the school.	־	,
Twenty years from now it will be possible	: .
for a legislature to build a fine new building for this school within a single year, but it will take the next twenty years to grow the trees and shrubbery that this campus should have, if we start now. We can not expect our graduates to help beautify the school buildings and school grounds of the State unless their alma mater sets them the example. The people of the State should realize that the grounds of the State institutions are the State parks and beauty spots of the future. On account of all these things we ask the following amount for campus improvement.............-.......;■...—15,000.00 $ ־
EQUIPMENT (Permanent)
Under this heading will be included all of those items which could properly be added to the capital investment of the school, for example, machinery, scientific apparatus, laundry and dining room equipment, etc. In short, anything that can be expected to last for a number of years.
