I N l SBIIOR MESSAGE The initiation and completion of any worthwhile project, whether large or small, require the contributions of many different people. These efforts are of two kinds. The first involves thinking, planning and creative imagination. This portion of the work, when related to a school building, is the responsibility of the architect. He consults with the Board of Education and members of the teaching staff and discusses with them various ideas about size, shape, color and design of the different parts of the building. After a general plan is determined, the architect begins the detailed design of the structure. This step introduces the second kind of effort, that of producing in tangible fem the ideas that have been developeda Now are used drawings, descriptions and models to picture the final fonm. The skill of many hands is required to complete this stage. The contractor is ready now to begin construction of the building. This requires combined efforts of many workmen with various skills. Laborers carpenters, masons and painters, plumbers and electricians, contribute their skills to produce the finished building. When students enter and begin to use a building, the processes of planning and working by plan begin again. Each step is dependent upon and becomes a part of the other. Plans and designs that can not be used to build a useful product are of no value. Work and skill without plan and direction can accomplish nothing. Together, however, possibilities are limitless.
