Soldiers Field Lodge.

The keeper's lodge at Soldiers Field, just inside the Newell Gate, is now finished, and will be opened for use as soon as the furniture is put in. The lodge is a one and one-half story building with a deep basement. The foundation is of stone, and the main part of brick finished with pine. The basement, second floor and back part of the main floor are for the use of the keeper. In the front part of the building on the main floor is a large reception room. This room is handsomely finished and has a large fireplace at one end with a chimney seat on either side. The room is intended for the use of students and their friends as a convenient place of meeting and resting on days of games.

Norway maples have been planted along the whole length of the Harvard street fence and along the river driveway. Shrubs and grass have also been planted along the fence and about the lodge and preparations are now being made for planting flowers.
