system of school buildings erected in Cincinnati. Believing from early experience that the development ofjudgment and char- acter is as essential as knowledge learned from books, it became a func- tion of the board to provide as broad a curriculum as possible, and to meet the needs, both cultural and vocational, of ind1vidual groups of children. Larger auditoriums, swimming pools, better equipped gymnasiums, and playground facilities were included in the new schools. Equipment and room for manual training and domestic science courses were furnished. The auto- motive industries, the printing trade, and other industrial courses were pro- vided for. Classical high school and junior high school courses were intro- duced; and music and art were stimu- lated. In other words, the schools, instead of teaching only knowledge from books, were to bring out and de- velop the best in each individual student, and deliver him a citizen, Worthy of his city and of his state. East High School, now the VVithrow High School, was Dr. Withrowhs special pride. In it was combined all the knowledge acquired from 21. nation-wide study of school construction. The audie torium, the gymnasium and stadium, the lunch moms and the separate de- partments, ail enclosed in a beautiful building of rambling colonial style, make us feel that it was a pride right- eousiy founded. Dr. Withrow found it necessary to resign from the school board in 1924. Shortly after, the name of East High School was changed to VVithrow High School. From the time of his resigna- tion until his death, he served as chair- man of the Citizens' School Committee. On May 14, 1931, Dr. John M. Withrow unexpectedly passed away. We who now enjoy the results of his labors shall, as Citizens, always appre- ciate the foresight of this unsehqsh, civic-minded man. JOHN H. MARIS. TH E WI TH ROW HOMESTEAD
