EARL HAM IN FINAL
EFFORT IN Campaign
Trustees Must Raise $4,000

Kelly Says 1t Is Not Likely

MAKE LAST ATTEMPT

Unless the trustees of Earlham col
lege secure at least 5000 during the
coming week, the Institution will not
be retained on the list of beneficiaries
of the General Education Board, and
will not receive any of the promised
$4,000 TO be given in case the college
secured 1925 900 in donations from
other sources to the endowment of the
college.
When it was seen that it would be
impossible TO raise the entire 1925
600 by the first of the year. 1914 the
General Education Board informed col
lege authorities that if one-third of
the original amount were secured. one
third of the $4,000 would be paid by
the board. In final squirt to secure
the necessary amount, the trustees
have been working during December
10 raise a fund of $4,000 the amount
needed to complete one-third OF the
original amount and this special cam
pagn has resulted in securing only
$4,000 to date. The other $4,000 must
