Our Birthday Gift HE school year just completed will long be remembered as a red Bradley's existence has in turn shown marked advancement over the former ones, but the year of nineteen hundred six and seven qw W' letter one in the history of Bradley Institute. Each year of 5i5.3,,,,..?f,5.. will stand head and shoulders above all others:-it has marked Mrs. Bradley's ninetieth birthday and the tenth birthday of our school, and as a memorial to these great occasions, we have Mrs. Bradley's birthday gift to us-the appropriation for a gymnasium. Was there ever a birthday gift so well suited to the wants and wishes of the recipient as this one? How much we have always longed for just this thing, and how many schools fortunate enough to possess a gym we have secretly envied! And now, in steps our fairy godmother, devines our wish, and grants it beyond our wildest dreams! Best of all, the promise of the gymnasium was a complete surprise to every- one. When Mr. O. J. Bailey made the announcement to us assembled for the Founder's Day exercises, even the Faculty heard the plan for the iirst time, and Mr. Bailey himself had known of it for only a few minutes, for Mrs. Bradley kept her secret until shortly before coming into the Chapel. Not only to the athletic activities of Bradley will the gymnasium be an unlimited benefit, but also to our social life. We shall be brought into closer fellowship with each other through the common pleasures it will afford. And for club or class parties, how good it will be to have some place that we can call our own and not be obliged to depend on some hospitable member's kindness, or resort to a rented hall! Moreover, that dreadful ghost, the Spirit of the Class- room, which sometimes haunts club meetings held in recitation rooms, will never dare to intrude upon us when we meet in the gym. Above all, we shall remember the example of generosity and loving thought- fulness set for us by our gentle founder. May she live to see the full greatness of the blessing she has bestowed upon us. S. J. G.
