HURON COUNTY BEING ASKED EOR A GRANT OF $73,000 On the eve of the campaign by the University of Western Ontario throughout Western Ontaio to raise $1,000,000 twoard. the endowment fund which, is necessary to the sur­ vival of the institution, a statement has been addressed to the citizens of the counties within the university constituency, giving a general out­ line of the university needs and the project under way to meet them. This statement is as follows: Some years ago the present build­ ings of the University of Western Ontario were erected, but no pro­ vision was made then or subsequent­ ly for their maintenance. Since that time the demands upon the University fm^ its services have continued to increase to the extent that the student enrolment has doub­ led. As the result of this increased enrolment the indebtedness of the university has also year to year. It at $425,000. As is well known, any university pays far less than the equivalent of the cost of his tuition, In the case of the student at “Wes­ tern” student’s fees meet less than one-half of the <^>>r of their educa­ tion. They must remain thus if “Western” is to continue the ‘open door’ policy of ’a higher education for every boy ami girl in Western Ontario.’ The Board of Governors, in fac­ ing this problem, considered very Every Woman Needs “Fruit-a-tives” the sure way to regular health MRS.

The contour of a beautiful face; the blend of co­ lors in a masterly picture; the charm of a beautiful woman—all these have their universal appeal. The city or town in which, our home is made should be less beaut­ iful, in our eyes than the country­ side we repair to in summertime, the. mountains or the seashore. Our quest of all, good we have inherent portion in the land of the living, we shall not be content with a city or town which does not mirror the beauty that possesses us. We shall want our home-town (that blessed word! > to be beautiful, wholesome, orderly, healthy, virile, and a place of which to be proud. “Clean-up Week” comes as a boon and a blessing to many an uti- beautiful community an ideal.

This was practically impossible in view of the fact that there. wer<^ so many asking application for admission. Increas­ ing the fees was suggested, but this would mean that only children of wealthy parents w-mld be able to at­ tend. The only solution pos­ sible was a public appeal to the Pro­ vincial Government the City of Lon­ don and the Fourteen Counties which the University serves, for an. endowment fund of $2,0im.uU0, the interest on which would provide the necessary annual income of $100,- 000.00. The Board of Governors have started this fund by making individ­ ual contributions amouting to $100,- 000.00 Tlife Provincial Government was approached and offered to provide ways and means for - the funding of the present indebtedness. And, real­ izing, that the University, for the next two years, until the interest on the returns from the proposed en­ dowment fund materializes, will need further assistance, has increased the present grant of $250,00(1 a year to .$300,000. But it has been made clear by the Government that in or­ der to expect further assistance, the people of ‘Western Ontario, who are benefiting directly by the Univers­ ity’s services, must do their share. The next step has been to appeal to individual citizens of London for a total of'$l,00<iJi«('.». aside from the fact that the City, through taxation, conributes $55,Of" each year. The appeal now is being carried to the Fourteen Counties in western On­ taio for individual county grants to­ talling $800,000. This, with a per­ sonal appeal to b? ma'de to friends and graduates of rhe University, and grants by cities wi’hin the Western Counties which we hope will amount to an additional $'2"0.(>00. will pro­ duce our objective total of $1,000,- 000 Cor the Western Counties, and the necessary grants total of $2.- 000,000. ” In deciding to ask the Counties of the University’ rmi'dituency for grants, it was considered that the amount should be ^governed by the student enrolment representative of each County, its population and esti­ mated wealth, and its geographical proximity to the University. * In each ease the grants are sought on a five-year payment basis, with­ out interest, Middlesex County is asked to grant SlmijW). or $20,- 000 per annum for five years. The Counties of Elgin. Kent. Lambton, Huron and Oxford are asked for grants of $75,000. or $15,<>00 per annum for five years. The effect of these grants in the matter of taxa­ tion is one of less than one-half mill on the local annual assessment. This will not work a hardship to anyone, and is a much fairer way of apportioning the objective than to appeal to the citizens to raise the. amount by voluntary subscriptions, although there are friends of the University whose means will permit of their doing so. who will have an opportunity of making voluntary contributions and thus perpetrate their names on the records University as benefactors. The eleven chartered cities constituent counties, apart London, i.e., St. Thomas, Chatham, Sarnia, Woodstock, Stratford. Brant, ford, Kitchener, Guelph, Owen Sound and Galt are being asked to make individual gants of One Dollar per capita, or Twenty Cents per annum for five years. Every County and City grant will be permamently invested as part of the Endowment Fund of the Univers­ ity, and only the interest used, and each will be perpetually known in the University foundation as the En­ dowment Gift of that County or City. that four live, and where our loved life, the busy street, Therefore the lanes, the highways should and kept clean, so may be safe for the of the in the from G.
