common through that district and con
stitutes an appeal which cannot be
ignored.
But this school, worthy of all praise
both for its ideals and accomplished
work, is constantly held back through
lack of funds. Many clubs refuse to
see the necessity of contributing at all,
but the gerat majority contribute some
thing, though far less than they are
really able.
The budget expenses fer the year
amount to $4,000, though, of course, as
the school grows, the budget will
increase also. There are $4,000 wom-
