From the south entrance through a vestibule and luMav, we reach the kindergarten.

Adequate Heating _ In general each room in the build- ing is heated by air which has passed over, steam coils and forced iutofhe vrooms by means of a motor driven blower through. ducts and fluea. The aircomes directly from the outside (and the' quantity is proportioned to suit the number,of pupils in each room. The temperature is maintained automatically by thermostatic control so that an adequate amount of prop- erly heated air is always assured. _There] is an ,intercommunicating telephone system connecting every room in the building,mnd a clock sys- tem connecting. every room in the tsuitdinf, and a clock system with a control which automatically tings the signal-gags to start and dismiss classes.
