@.Long years of illness have left her
tongue twisted so she has difhculty
in articulating her limbs have been .af-
fected by rheumatism, so that walking
fingers have been knotted and misshapen
and within the last year they have be
come utterly useless. But the years OF
suffering have not daunted the spirit
of Rosalie Freedman nor dimmed her
ambition to become an artist.
In dingy corner of an upstairs
cafe that forms the most spacious part
of the Freedman home, at 1921 Race
street, nineteen year old Rosie has
worked for more than two months
painting a portrait of President Will
son. holding the paint brush in hel
teeth.
Members of the family each after
noon placed the paint box, the cup OF
water, brushes and the water color pad
on the table before the girl, and she
has done the rest. With the material
fiat on the table before her she sketched
the face of the President, mixed her
water colors and painted n remarkable
portrait, without touching her hands to
the material. Tediously. laboriously
but altogether joyously, the girl worked
with the pencil or brush between he,
teeth, her head bent close above the
paper. r'
Send Portrait to President
The portrait now is completed. II
has been framed and will be sent this
week to President Wilson with a letter
which the girl herself has written as
she held the pencil in her teeth.
Dear President Wilson, reads the
letter, "it gives me great pleasure t

the $61,987 income, one-third paid
by the students, and two-thirds by
receipts from invested funds, scholar
ships, contributions, and all other
sources, shall provide for 500 stu
dents without involving the College

WHENCE DO THE CONTENTS OF
THE POCKETBOOK COME?

This has in part been answered,
yet an additional word of explana-
ton is needed.
/ /. The Permanent Funds. Of
these nearly all have come from
generous friends of Christian educa-
ton that recognize the needs Mary
vile College was established to meet,
and appreciate the service the Col
lege has rendered during the one
hundred years of it's history. Some
portions have been received through
requests and some have been given
on the basis of an annuity, the
pecuniary benefit of the gift to be
bestowed upon the College in the
future. Of the money paid by the
students not one cent is added to the
permanent funds
2. The Income That Maintains
The Institution. (1 From invested
funds. The trust funds are careful
ly invested by the Board of Direc-
tors acting through it's Executive
Committee and Business Manager.
The income from these funds during
1917-1918 (the figures for the pres
ent year being incomplete), was
$23,434. (2) From donations to
current funds, except scholarships,
accounted for below, and from other
sources. All such receipts totaled,
in 1917-1o18, $6,592. go From
the students. In 1917-1918, the
students paid, exclusive of board,
$31,961. Of this amount $12,031 was
paid back to the students in scholar
ship and self-help. The income re-
ceived each year from the students
exclusive of scholarship help suffices
to pay less than one-third of the run
ming expenses.
