September 3rd will be the beat—or the worst—day in the history of Greene County, Which will you make it? There is enough money; there are enough people; there Is enough love in Greene County to meet the Meed* of Cedarville College and to meet them NOW, Why Does Cedarville College Need $260,000? The State Association of Colleges in Ohio controls higher edu­ cation in this state. It demands that any college in <jhio, to have recogni­ tion, must have:- lafc A productive endowment Of not less than $206,060. (Cedarville Col­ lege has only about half this amount) To meet the demands of the AssOeia- tion*of Colleges for Endowment, the Alumni of Cedarville College are now raising $100,000 for the Endowment Fund. The Reformed Presbyterian Church Outside of Cedarville and Greene County has pledged $28,000 of this amount within five years. Two of the Alumni have pledged $ 10,000 each, making a total of $45,000 pledg­ ed toward the $100,000 for the Alumni Endowment Fund. There is no doubt that the other members of the.Alumni will pledge and raise the remaining $58,000. 2 nd. The State Association of Col­ leges demands that the buildings and equipment of any college in Ohio must have an actual valuation of at least $100,000, Among these; buildings 'are required an Administration build­ ing, a Science Halt, a Gymnasium, Jl and a Dormitory adequate to the de­ mands upon tis«!Institution: Cedar- rtlteQoitegft to aufe- , ‘ .

SHE MUST HAVE THEM AT ONCE, The Alford Gymnasium is entirely too small and altogether un­ equipped for the purpose of a gym­ nasium, I t is the poorest so-called gymnasium In the State of Ohio, I t has served its day; but it can be con- yetted into a first-class Science Hall at a cost not to exceed $ 20 , 000 . Loca­ ted as it is in one of the most beauti­ ful tpots of Cedarville, and thus remodelled, it will be one of the most attractive and practical Science Halls in Dtir State. A hew, modem, thoroughly equip­ ped gymnasium could be erected, on the campus just south of the present College building. It should be about 10OxJ£0 ft. in dimension*. The first floor should be laid for Indoor sports, calisthenics, and gymnastic exercises. The cost of this building is estimated a t $40,000. Most College gymnasium* in Ohio have cost from $80,000 to $800,000. The Girl’s Dormitory should be built on the campus on the north side of the present building, It ought to be a two-story building with a base­ ment. The basement should he used for a kitchen, dining hail, and a laundry room. The first story should have a reception parlor and a Y. W. C, A. room. The second story may he used for living rooms. Such a build­ ing will accomodate about fifty girls and will cost $40,000; most girls' dormitories cost from $60,000 to For the past five years, from 15 to 10 girls have been refused atten­ dance each year a t Cedarville Col­ lege because there was no dormitory for them. They have no real college home and consequently not the sur­ veillance found in other colleges which parents require for their dau­ ghters, and which a~fir*t-cla«e Chris­ tian college provides for girls. The Atamai have undertaken to raise the $106,u©0 for the endowment and they will raise i t They have challenged Cedarville and every town­ ship in Greene County to raise $100,- 000 for the asw betiding* referred to tbeve. A FIVE YEAH program has been adopted by which to raise these amounts. The contributor to either nr bath of these funds may have FIVE FULL YEARS in which to pay hie pledge. He may pay hi* pledge annually, semi-annuptiy, quarterly, monthly or any other way to suit hi# Mmveniene*. Ne one Is so poor but ;hat he can give SOMETHING to this worthy c&uee. If everyone will give » he can, Cedarville College will be »cured to Greene County perman­ ently and will continue to grow and prove a greater blessing in all the .’owing years and to all future gener­ ations. - ‘.-C- Dept Friends, count what yen will loss if the College, hr compelled to cease its work or to move away;- 1st THE MATERIAL LOSS;- The College main building,‘ toe Alfotcl Gymnasium and fate Carnegie Library' building WILL ALL BE CLOSED. 106 students will be taken from your midst, A student spend* on an aver­ age (by actual count) $300,00 annu­ ally.

The Mental Lou. The remov­ al of Cedarville .College means that its professors and instructors 1 Will leave. Their influence, their culture, and their help in the molding and mkk ig of the community will be lost.- It meant that young men and women of laudable’ambition and vision in this community will be compelled to- go elsewhere for their college train­ ing and eventually be drawn from our midst. I t means that the opportunity which many of the young men and women now have to secure a college education, will be lost for ever. I t will necessarily tower toe goal and stand­ ard of the grade and high schools in Cedarville ad adjacet towns, because most of our youth come to Cedarville College after graduating from neigh­ boring public schools. With the Col­ lege gone, and the opportunity fo r a collegiate education (such as they could afford) gone, they will naturally bo handicapped in realising their am­ bitions. 3rd. The Moral and EeMgfeu* Loss. Cedarville College is distinctly and fundamentally a Christian College. I t developes Christina character and sets toe moral and religious goal, for every student, in leans Christ. Two years' work are required of every graduate in moral and Bibical in­ struction, one year of which la spent in Ethics and Apologetics and the other year in Old and New Testa­ ment studies.
