Building Plans for a benefit card party, pro- ceeds to be added to the club's pledge of an annual $1,000 contribution to the National Kindergarten and Ele- mentary College building fund, were made when members of the board of the local and north shore alumnae organization were luncheon guests of their president, Mrs. Alfred R.

RLU TTR TE rr CT TTT FROM A TOWER WINDOW TTT TT] - When we pause in our work here at the Academy to look out of the window we see below us an - expanse of shining water, thick green foliage in billowy clusters and stately buildings spired and domed. And though Autumn loveliness with its high color is spreading beneath us, we know that Winter with its soft snow-trees and stretches of ~ white from town to ice-locked lake will be as ~ beautiful in its own way. And Spring will be another beauty, different and as inspiring. Surely no school ever had a finer home. In a community whose fine loyalties and intelligence have built substantial homes and leisure for re- finement, in these rooms skillfully designed and splendidly equipped, high above the streets and meadows, we work out conceptions of what is needed to make the world a more beautiful and happier place to live in. Our enrollment tells us that Evanston and the North Shore is appreciating that we have here a school more than adequate. We are very grateful for that spirit and anxious to work with an ever increasing student body.
