Ellie New Mgmrtaainm At tl1e present time the school is the possessor of a temporary wooden Gynmasium, and of the foundations for another building, which, whe11 completed, will be a large and handsome permanent Gymnasium. This new Gymna- sium was begun nearly a year ago, but it seemed best to discontinue the work upon it at that time, owing to the fact that the funds collected for tl1e purpose were 11ot sufficient to finish it in the way that had been originally planned. It has been quite naturally a cause of some surprise that the building was begun at all, but the explanation is a very simple one. Considerable money had been collected, and, in addition to other gifts, there was one large enough in itself to appear to justify beginning work on the building, with the full expectation of finishing it without interruption. This particular gift, however, was in the form of railrozd stock, and during the past year it would have bee11 such poor business to have sold this stock, that it was decided not to do so, but to suspend building operations for a while. An alternative course would have been to have modified the plans and put up a less handsome and less expensive building. The decision was-reached, however, that it would be better to wait until it would be possible to put up a building that uld be an ornament to the school, and that in all other respects would be adequate to the permanent needs that it was intended to supply. Work, accordingly, was discontinued for the time being, and a temporary Gynmasium was erectedgfor the immediate needs of the school. This Gymnasium does very well for the present, but it is earnestly h-oped that before long funds will be forth-coming' that will enable the school to finish the larger building in the way that had been originally planned. architectural ly wo 47
