Mapping out the line of work in

the following report:
"Your committee appointed to take
up the matter concerning the raising
of funds for the purpose of paying
off an accumulated current expense
fund amounting to $4,000 now ow-
ing by the College of Idaho, beg to
report as follows:
I'm order to promote the better eff
ficiency of that splendid and growing
institution, and make it possible to
acquire the $4,000 in endowment
funds payable on condition that the
current expenses are fully paid, we
heartedly recommended that the Cald-
we'll Commercial club take such ac-
ton that will put Caldwell's largest
institution in financial condition that
will assure it's still greater growth.
Your committee has given full con-
sideration to the present financial
times and "the first thought of the
rather large figure required" but in
the knowledge of the many friends
that the college has made, we feel
that it will not be a burden on the
community and should by the proper
effort be easily taken care of, if Cald-
wells usual spirit is asserted.
Your committee finds that If $751;
600 is raised by Caldwell and vicinity,
the balance of the $4,000 necessary,
will be assured from other sources.
This would, for an example, mean that
if $50, 100 or 800 $50 subscribers were
obtained the matter would be taken
care of.
"Your committee has considered a
plan and recommends that the presi-
dent of the Commercial club shall ap-
point committee of Is. of which he
is to act as chairman, to undertake
all things necessary for a successful
campaign. Also an auxiliary women's
committee of six members to cooper
ate in the work.
Respectfully submitted,
~ HENRY ZEH, Chairman,
]. II. LOWELL,
II. d. HANNA,
w. T. KIMBROUGH."

and the selection of committees, Mrs.

were we'll presented and enthusiastic
ally received. Mr.. Gwinn and DR..
c. l.. Chalfant outlined the problem
before the college and Mrs. H. B.
Blatchley, one of the institutions
most staunch friends from the time Of
its Inauguration, gave woman's view
point of the necessity of placing the
college on a firm foundation. Other
