The Call of Cedarville College, and the Response THE CALL ON THE eleventh of July, ninteen-hundred and twenty-one, Cedar- ville College sent out a call for $200,000 for Building and Endow- ment Funds. One hundred thousand was to be expended on buildings and one hundred thousand was to be added to the present endowment fund. This would provide for the erection of a new gym- nasium, a new dormitory for girls, and the revamping of the Alford Memorial for a Science Hall. The former two buildings were to be erected on the campus on either side of College Hall. For eight weeks this call was kept before the friends of the College. Greene County, the Alumni, and the Reformed Presbyterian Church were thoroughly organized and given the opportunity to contribute to the funds. The plan calls for a campaign to cover five years, ending in July, 1926. No interest is charged on notes and pledges given. The notes and pledges are payable at such times during the five years as suit the convenience of the contributors. The Alumni are to raise $100,000 of the amount, and Cedarville and Greene County are to raise the remaining $100,000. THE RESPONSE During the eight weeks of the intensive campaign, last summer, $126,000 of the total amount was subscribed. Since that date more has been added to bring the amount up to $150,000. This leaves only $50,000 of the original sum to be raised during the next four years. Every indication seems to point not only to the raising of this amount, but even a larger sum. The loyalty manifested by Cedarville, Greene County, the Alumni and the many friends in the R. P. Church is most commendable. The largest personal contribution was made by W. J. Alford, who gave $20,000 to perpetuate the memory of his beloved father and mother, whose names are revered by a host of friends. Let everyone interested in the College continue to press the call until the last dollar is raised. 6 W. R. McCTIESNEY.
