the President was authorized to have such a building
constructed.
(16) it was moved and seconded and unanimously
adopted that the President request IMlr. Charles A.
Coolidge to prepare plans for a building located on
the Campus for Y.M.C.A. purposes with a postoffice
in connection therewith, the building to be of per-
manent construction. In this connection the Pres-
ident reported that a postoffice inspector had
visited the University tand discussed the necessity
of a postoffice building where mail for men in the
camps and the people of the University could be ad-
equately cared for. He also called attention to
the fact that the Y. ML. C. A. people at the camp
are working under great difficulties, in handling
the mail.

(17) The report of the Businesw Agent was
then presented and ordered to be made a part of the
minutes. The report was as follows:
October 1-1918
President F. L. MicVey,
University of Kentucky.
Dear Doctor McVey:
I submit herewith a statement showing receipts
and disbursements to September 30. The meeting
comes so soon after the first of the month I have
been unable to prepare a complete report.
I also submit an analysis of student fees col-
lected to september 30.
II report to Septenber 30 on Third Camp klilitary
Technical Training is also submitted.
The reports for operation of Experiment Station
for last year are ready. It has been customary to
appoint an Auditing Committee to examine and approve
these reports. Copy is submitted.
it will probably be well to appoint at this
time an Auditilig Committee for the Extension .Report
fo.r last *year which I hope to have ready at an early
date.
I wish to call your attention-to the copy of
letter sent to Lexington Utiiities Company. If the
new method of charging is kept up! i.t will add an
average of over 075.0O per month to the 'Jniversity
bills for light and power.
I submit the statement of account of Marwick,
Mitchell, Peat & Company for auditing booIs .
Mr. Forsyth 6xpected to be here the first of this
month to complete work on putting in new system, but
the forms have not been completed. I think it is
not necessary to go to fuether expense than having
hill return and opea a General Ledger. He suggested
bringing another man with him, but I think the pre8s-
ent office f orce can takc care of it. With Ltr. L.H.
McCain now in the office I hope to give trou in a few
days a detailed budget report of bills 1 c8id, . utstand-
ing ordez.s and balances.

each, contents 1,500, -tox'nado 95,000 each. This

it will be necessary to take out at least .25,000

Agencies. I shall greatly appreciate advice of the
Committee as to extent o.insurance and policy as to
placing insurance.

the state for 1918 is ;,5,466,917.40- Other collect-

vancing so much on Barracks No. 3 and E arracks No. 4
t'.at they are "hard pushed". Money for this is due
but not on hand. Shall we pay it
