THE UNIVERSITY CHAPEL.

The handsome Gothic chapel was erected upon the university
grounds by the voluntary gifts of students, alumni, members of the faculty
and other friends. For many years regular Sunday services were
conducted in it until easy access to the city churches rendered that needless.
It is now used for occasional services addressed by religious leaders
of national repute, thus supplementing the religious meetings of the
churches and the Y. M. C. A.
