On the first floor are located the plain for instruc- tion in plain fixing and weaving; on the second floor fancy looms, box and dobby, leno, lappet and Jacquard looms, also working models of the various types of loom heads. The third floor is occupied by the warp preparation de- partment: spooling, winding, , chain warp and slashing. On the fourth floor are placed the hand looms and finish- ing machinery. The new dye house is a commodious structure, 52 by 24 feet, situated on Green Street, in the rear of the main build- ing. The west and north walls, which are permanent,' are of cut stone and coursed ashlar, the south and east temporary walls of brick and concrete. It has a saw-tooth roof, high and with good ventilation, specially constructed for a dye and bleach house. This building is designed after the style of the main administration building, and will be enlarged.

Power House. The power-plant addition consists of an engine and dy- namo room 26 by 40 feet, a boiler house 56 by 40 feet, and a pump room 15 by 25 feet The structure is built in a thoroughly fire-proof manner The walls are of faced brick, set in stained mortar, with paneled corner pieces and an ornamental cornice capped with copper. Large windows admit light to three sides of the building, and a roof monitor gives overhead light and ventilation. The roof of the boiler and engine house is of reinforced concrete supported by heavy steel beams. The floor of the boiler house is concrete with iron plate in front of the boilers, while that of the engine room is fine concrete with Terrazzo top supported on steel beams. The engine room walls are furred with gypsum tiling blocks with wainscoting of enameled tile The boiler room is planned to accommodate three boilers wo of which are in place, thus increasing the capacity of 4 BRADFORD DURFEE SCHOOI 4

the plant to twice its present rating. Power is generated by a 150 horse-power direct-connected set, and is tians mitted to individual motors in the machine rooms. of This power plant with its equipment is a model its deter- kind, and is so arranged that the various problems ot mining operating costs are worked out by means of special tests and daily records. All the buildings are adapted to the manufacture of tex- tile fabrics and educational purposes, with all the modern appliances as to heat, ventilation, gas and electric lighting, and sanitary arrangements. Between the power house and the annex is a large lava- Tory fitted with the latest and improved sanitary devices, bowls, drinking fountains and liquid-soap receptacles, Floor space is divided as follows: Square Feet.
