T n E Y E A R I. V T A T T 1. E K In recent years a well equipped Kiris gymnasium has added much to the social life of the school. A new school building, modern in every wav. gives added impetus to higher education for every deaf child who will stop to realize the great effort put forth to cause him to get the most out of life and to enable him to give lii best to the world. The completion of the remodelling of the boys dormitory in 1021, makes it the finest c'Miipprd building of its kind in the state. The building now provides a room for every two or three bovs, making it morr homelike and encouraging originality throughout. They appreciate it and arc happy in their new home. During the past bi-annual period many improvements have been made. The new hospital is just being completed. Tin officers’ and teachers dinin' room is a splendid addition to the school Manv new improvements have been made in both the .cl»oo buildings and dormitories We are indeed fortunate, through the untiring efforts of Superintendent Bray, to '•ccurr a $25,000 appropriation for a cottage for the smaller children. This, of course, will be a step in the right direction in favor of the Oral Department of our school In this building the smallest children will be segregated and if surrounded by an Oral atmosphere, continuously, it has been found that the teaching of language in the lower grades is an easier problem. Ample provisions has been made to make the school life and the social life of the deaf child who comes here as pleasant and homelike as it is possible for it to be. Each vear committees of teachers take charge of holiday parties for the younger as well as the older children. At Christmas time the buildings arc gav in decoration and cverv festivity is planned for those who must stav at school during the Christmas season. For five of the school months each class of both boys and girls spend two or three periods each week in the gymnasium. The larger girls and boys take an active interest in basket ball. The Gymnasium Exhibition given the first Friday night in April, is always large!) attended by Delavan people, not forgetting the moving pictures every Saturday night in the Chapel. These pictures arc of an educational value that some pupils would get in no other wav. Picnics and parties in the spring always end a year full of happy da vs. vet cause each child to look with anxiety to Home-Going Day. Look a few years into the future upon the Wisconsin School for the Deaf. The changes will he many. Beautiful new buildings will be nestling anion the wonderful trees, each venr adding to their beauty and Strength. The lawns, wide, green and well-kept will be an invitation for you to visit one of the beautv spots of Wisconsin and a place that you will be proud to know.
