FUND ARRIVES AT Z.
CLEANUP STAGE
FINAL PUSH BEING
MADE THIS WEEK
Doughnuts Bring $221 Into Treasury.
Concert at the Lake Nets
$125 More.

A final push this week will end the
campaign for $500 for the Salvation
Army home service fund in Medina
county. Workers predict that the
quota will be oversubscribed. y,
The sale of dougnnuts in Medina
village last Saturday helped the local
quota to the extent of $221. A much
larger sum would have been realized
had it not been for the sudden rain
which broke over the village about
o'clock in the evening, which no
doubt, kept many people at home. The
band gave an entertainment on the
park in spite of this handicap. The
doughnut part Of the campaign was
handled by Mrs. H. G. West and Mrs.
Clark Reinhardt, and the amount
realized exceeded expectations.
At the Sunday concert at Chippewa
Lake but $125 was realized, $71 Of
this being in the form of gate re-
ceipts, which were donated to the fund
by Manager Beach. An unusually
small crowd was present at this enter
tainment, although the music rendered
by John Beck's orchestra supple
mented by the lake orchestra, was
Of high order. Mrs. p. C. BigeloW,
Miss Genevieve Brintnall and Louis
Best all rendered solos and were re-
peatedly encored. Talks were given
by Ensigns Rettig Of Akron and Pol
son of Cleveland, and by a recently
returned private, from Toledo. Boy
Scouts worked the crowd for subscrip-
tions.
| No reports have been made public
yet, but Chairman John Moore stated
Wednesday that Seville had notified
him that the village had subscribed
its quota and was still going strong.
Township chairmen have been ap-
pointed in each Of the various sub-dis-
tricts and will file reports, which will
be available for publication next week.
Several places are planning to sell
doughnuts this week, but the bulk OF
the money is being raised by personal
solicitation. Following are the names
of the various township chairmen:
Mr.. Ed Gibbs, Brunswick township;
C. I. Miller, Granger township; w. 5.

President Frost will be sxtyiye years old on the
second of July.
He has just completed his twenty-seventh year at
Berea.
He was the spiritual son OF Bereas founders. His
great predecessor Henry Fairchd had prayed for him

their hands upon his head when he naugurated in
the great tabernacle. He providentiay prepared

school OF three hundred and fifty institution which
embraces many departments and enlists than two
thousand students every year. representing almost every
county in the mountain region.
President Frost long since gave notice that he should
resign the presidential Office at the age of seventy hop
ing to have later years for evangelstic and literary
work: The fact of his continued i'll health, which be-
gan with the latest and greatest OF his campaigns
secure means for carrying on the work. has made it
necessary to- tighten his labors at this time The
trustees considered this matter very carefully and
made it plain that whenever President Frost retres
some be found who will carry forward the same
plans and policies that Berea shall always be the
religious center and the same loving mother to the self
supporting mountain student
For the coming year he is to have his assistants
Vice President and Executive Secretary that he
prosecute his great work without being tied down to
much routine and to many wearing details.
AS Vice President for the coming year the Faculty
and Trustees appoint Prof. c. Rexford Raymond

The Presidents physicians say that he ought not to
give than four hours day to real executive work.
With the help thus provided he will be able give

of the Berea enterprise. And is quite probable that
