At a special meeting of the board of trustee of Boiling SprinRS high school on February 18th, 1921, the undersigned were instructed by the beard to make an immediate ttnd. ur gent appeal to all churches and indi viduals that are in arrears on pledges to the memorial building fund. Work on building was dh(ortinucd ii November for need o funds, Ihe walls of the building are about half completed. We have outstanding olli .Ltiona aggregating several thousand dollars for labor and mat.uta.', a part' cf which is covered by a cote signed by the building commit 'ce. The note will soon be due and the account are fell passed due and must be paid. It is extremely important tnat the building be carried to the point where it can be closed in as the walls and material will greatly damage in the spring and summer months In Its present state. It ta thought that with u sufficient force the building can be closet! in within six or .e'vn weeks. Work cannot be resumed without money and it is almost impossible to borrow mone yfor any purpose at this time. ' We are, therefore, forced to make an earnest appeal to every church and SOCIALNEWS Civic Department v X Meeting.
