The Kew-Forest School Development Fund OR the tifth successive ye.1r the Bffllfel' t.1lls .1ttention to the importance of the Kew-lforest School Development Fund .1s .1 nie.1ns of .ldY.lI'lL' ing the progress of the school. ln .1 ye.1r in which the l5!f1ffer'i princip.1l theme is progress it is n.1tur.1l to point with special emph.1sis to w.1ys .uid me.1ns whereby the over-.1ll development ot' the school c.1n be .1cceler.1ted. To those about to enter high school, the pros- pect of having .1 new SP.1LlOLl5 auditorium .1v11il- .ible in time for their gl'LlLlLlLlflOIl exercises four ye.1rs hence is PlC1iSi1Ilf to contemplate. Yet all of thesefnnd .1ll of the classes above themfcannot help wishing th.1t the new building unit, with its .1ddition.1l classrooms, its lLll3Ol'L1IOflCS, its lllWl'Llfy', gymnasium, lockers .uid other fiicilities could be i1v.1il.1ble for their use in the intervening yei1rs. It is recognized that construction can begin only when building fund ilkLLlllTLllLlflOI'l reaches .1n Llp- propri.1te level. Thiit the iiccluisition of building funds is .lLLL'lL'f.1llIlg is .1 hopeful sign. Since the Blnflerfi initial contribution of S1008 in l9i0, every gr.1du.1ting class has made 11 generous con- tribution. The Kew-Forest School ASSOL'lLIflOI1, in its fund riiising this ye.1r, ecluitlled its record .lL'lllL'YCINCITf of last y'CLlI', through its .1nnu.1l Mil- it.1ry Bridge and its sponsorship of the Dr.1m.1tic Club production. Even lower school pupils h.1ve L'L1Llgl1f the building fund spirit, Llflkl, on .1 number of otc.1sions, an enterprising group, through the s.1le of .1 lower sthool newsp.1per. 'Sneezy News. h.1s m.1de size.1ble contributions, A number of p.1rents, from time to time, ll.1YC in.1de generous donations. Through .1ll of these sources the build- ing funds have grown. Building funds h.1ve risen, b11t so. .1lso. h.1ve costs of construction risen. It is quite likely th.1t the quarter million doll.1rs once thought to be the possible maximum cost m.1y be now the INlIllIN.ll figure, Such .1 building project, of course, must be .1decIu.1tely and sensibly tin.1nced. The t.1sk need not t.1ke Ll gCIlCI'.lflOl1 or .1 decade. An .1ll-out drive to r.1ise .1 SLIITI .IS large as 31231900 LCfl.llllly is not beyond the c11p.1city of the Kew-lforest School community. A successful drive of this m.1gnitude would be the full speed Lll'lCL1LlH sign.1l for the building project. There have been, in the current y'C.lI', .1s well L15 in recent years, many inspiring examples of gifts .ind efforts for b11ilding fund purposes. They should be the keynote for .1 concerted effort by the school family and its friends in behalf of the Development Fund. Your contributions Gill hasten the time when the Board of Trustees' Committee on Pltinning and Improvement, he.1ded by Mr. lerome T. Glasser, c.1n fultill its Llfhllli of ten years ago.
