During this time the workers learned the necessity of leadership and chose to assist in directing the labor Foremen Nicholas Zavalishin, Una Kelly, and George Klor. At the end of these six months, the laborers celebrated with a dance at which great mirth and jollity prevailed. For the next half year new foremen were chosen-lNIervin Harris, Jean Symes, and Henry Rowe. The material chosen was of the best, nothing went into construction until it had been tested for durability as well as beauty. At the end of the year, the structure was almost com- plete. Then was holiday declared and a dance given by the many work- ers. The contractors-Clark, Crofts, and Lacoste-attended, and fes- tive indeed was the occasion. Thus did the third year en-d, with half of 1930 spent, the temple of learning loomed high on the horizon of, life. The workers now began the fourth and last year of construction. New foremen headed them-VVilliam Heal, Betty Gray, and Bill Mc- Nulty-and Contractor Crofts relieved lllr. Clark as chief director. At the end of 1930, to commemorate the event, a class pin- was designed and chosen by the workers to signify a task well done. Different was the last year from all preceding. The building 'cper sei' was complete, but the rooms had yet to be decorated and furnished. By this time the workers had grown to cherish the structure and to real- ize the importance of its permanency. No longer were they unskilled laborers, but able craftsmen. Carefully applied labor had laid the foundation of study, co-operation and industry had combined to raise the framework of knowledge to its full height, perseverance and skill had made the structure strong, there yet remained the task of making it beautiful. The year 1931 was celebrated by a dance, which lasted only long enough to give a short respite until the final half year .should see the furtherance of that wonderful structure begun in 1927. For this new term, other forelnen were chosen-Owsley Gray, J une Leavitt, and Robin Lindsey-to organize this period of decoration. Gradually the structure became a more and more beautiful monu- ment to learning. Finally the structure was completed and a grand celebration was held. Contractors and superintendents spoke, and the message of Harry Wolff, orator of the day, was heard. After this in- spiring assembly, a dance was given, attended by many. Great was the jubilee and great the rejoicing. So stands this temple of learning, towering to the mighty heavens. The contractors now direct another structure, the workmen have gone on, but the building remains-an eternal monument for the world to enjoy, to use, to remember. imx9'?219fQw!
