Their Jiest to H-lp New,,Trier Survive Following the'announcement of the board of education that school would closeApr,îl 1, witb no definite date for> reopening, New Trierites bave re- sponded beartily to the 'plans made for selling tax warrants. Througb their parents' subscriptions, and their ow,$Z4,300 bad been subscribed by Moday morning. Sncb a respon se as i his, Iargely made by student, clubs and fiom. student personal -savings, certainly indicates that the -students desire continuation of, school. The consequences of. sbutting the. doors wouild be so tragic« and far- reacbing tbat tbey make one gasp: 1. Twenty-one hundred students tbrown loose on tbe township with comparatively ,notbing to do. * 2. Shut-dow- of al athletics. and consequential loss of place, in. Subur-. bwianlgue. 3. Plans of sei 1ors for enteýring col- lege would have to be cancelled, ex- cept in a very few cases where stu- dents have completed tbe required *courses and credits, or. could finish their last year in some tuition scbool nearby. 4. The loss of New Trier's standing. which is very higb, among educators, colleges, and iii educational fields in general. 5. The remioval of New Trier's namei from the list *of. accredited higb schools. turc, intrervt wouiu accrue, ïnsurance, would have to be paid and the prop- erty would have to be kept up. 7. Graduates of the nearby gram- mar schools would bave no place to go in the fall., 8. The excellent faculty would >e scattered ýcountryV-wide, and on the reopening of scbool would be imipos- sible to regain. Stu4ents realize the seriousness of the situation,-and are doing their best Sandwich Pro ject New Trier stuclents are to be warm- ly congratulated for their excellent cooperation in the sandwich project whicb bas been undertaken by the Tri-Ship club and the Girls' club. For the last month, the. supply bas aver-' ageéd a generous seventeen boxes, va- rying a little up or down each week. The . post-graduate .students, aided by several girls from the ýGirls' Club, Charity committee repack the sand- wiches in pasteboard boxes, tie and label them, and send themt on tbeir way. Ethel Anderson,' chairman of group, reports that. tbey are more than pleased witb tbe >generous re- spon.se. Ethel adds that forget fui people are giving fromn ten to thîrty- five cents to make up fortheir lapse of memory. This money is turnefl over to Miss Harriet Vitftum of tbe Northwestern University settlement, who takes care of and distributes the sandwiches -after their arrival in Ch;- cago. May we repeat the following sug..1 gestions ?1 1. Please don't pack more than two sandwiches together. 2. Please use string rather than rubber bands if you wish to tie up i each sandwich, as tbe rubber bands muist ail be remoyed before shipping. The contraction of the band squashes the sandwich as it journeys; also rubber bands in tbe bands of sma!l scbool cbldren cause con siderable disturbance in a classroom. wtIcome. 4. Don't forget your sandwiches! Remember, mothers, students, maids and ail; bring your sandwiches Wed - nesdayl Officiai Swim Season Opens for N. T.
