B.H.5. :' EmN l32g Most of the schools of today are coming nearer to the fulfillment of their function, whatever that may be determined' to be, by improving the equipment and the sanitary conditions under which children and teachers work, and making for greater safety. Panic release locks and fire drills have greatly reduced the hazards in our overcrowded buildings. School buildings today are being constructed with a view to making them health- ful and conducive to study. Goshen, however, has spent only 520,000 on new build- ings in seventeen years and nothing on remodeling. We are encouraged now, how- ever, with prospects for real constructive action in this line in the near future. We have a new High School Site of seventeen acres purchased and plans drawn for a new High School building that we feel will be a credit not only to Goshen but to all Northern Indiana. This is to be a thoroughly modern school, well equipped for several lines of pre-vocational and industrial work for boys and equally well fur- nished for corresponding activities for the girls. The plans are drawn to house a high school of 500 to 600 students and capable of expansion to accommodate many more. Goshen at the present time is much in need of an auditorium with seating capacity to accommodate audiences large enough to make it possible to bring to our city big attractions. The new building will meet this need with an auditorium that will seat twelve hundred and a stage ample for all our school and general public needs. The Gymnasium will have a seating capacity of twelve hundred or more and so arranged that it can be open to the public without opening up the rest of the building. Games and Physical Culture classes can thus be carried on without disturbing the school work in other parts of the plant. Q VVith the completion of this building, which we hope to see dedicated by Sepi temlfer, 1923, the present High School building is to be occupied by the Junior High School. Then the overflow from the crowded Chamberlain and South Fifth Street Schools can be accommodated in the Chandler Building. Sanitary conditions will be improved and the Goshen Schools will then, for the first time in many years, have elbow room and space in which to grow bigger. And with these increased facilities we hope to more nearly fulfill the mission for which public schools were created. J. W. FOREMAN. Twelve
