THE HEADMASTER'S NEW ON-CAMPUS HOME March of T950 was a memorable month in two ways. Besides announcing the approach of spring vacation to all PCD students, ground was broken at that time in the southwest corner of the Pem-Doy campus for the headmaster's new house. The excavators moved in, and soon the bulldozers were hard at work. Shortly after the excavating was started, a rock ledge was struck, definitely delaying the job as well as increasing the cost. Excavation finally was brought to a standstill to allow time for men to come in with dynamite and remove part of a tremendous rock vein. Gradually this obstacle, which had delayed the start of the actual construction, was overcome, and work was renewed on the foundation. During the next few months carpenters, furnace men, concrete men, electricians, bricklayers, plasterers, tile men, paper hangers, and painters, each in turn were seen as the work progressed. This progress on the house was watched with great interest by all the students and teachers. Soon the house assumed its final shape. The result was an attractive two-story brick colonial structure, having a living room, dining room, kitchen and dinette on the first floor and four bedrooms and two baths on the second. The double garage with automatic doors given by Mr. John Pierson, president of the Vendo Company, completed the home. Mr. R. V. Baltis, who designed the house, supervised the interior decorating. Later the yard was graded and sodded and the Rosehill Nursery contracted to landscape the grounds. The total cost of the project was S25,000. The house was financed through the Kansas City Life Insurance Company by a 520,000 self-liquidating loan, which will pay itself off in twenty years. The remaining 55,000 was raised by the school. Now after eight months the house was ready for occupancy, and accordingly Mr. and Mrs. Kingman, the proud owners, moved in. We who have watched the construction with so great an interest through the months wish them happiness in their beautiful new home.
