THE BLAKE SCHOOL FACULTY

1913. This addition, the money for which was again raised by the faith and perseverance of Mr. Bovey, provided a present gymnasium in the future chapel, a large reading room, a play room, locker rooms, a manual training room, and an additional class-room. With this very adequate additional space, the school was able to add about twenty boys to its enrollment, opening with 130 boys in September, 1913, and the usual twenty-five in the Junior School. With greater facilities, a larger faculty, now numbering twelve in the country and two in town, and a smaller number of new boys to “digest,” the school has gained in all departments during its third year, and has begun to develop an atmosphere of work and play of the kind for which its founders and faculty have been working. Such is the history of the Blake School, in its bare outlines. It would be impossible to express, even in much more space, the amount of ambition for the finest things, of earnest and loving thought, of intelligent and farsighted planning and of unselfish generosity which have been put into the development of the school. These time will surely show as year by year we all march together, putting every ounce of ourselves into the effort to “Make Her Worthy”—“Plan and Hope Fulfill. C. B. NEWTON SCHOOL AND STUDENTS
