CLIFTON COLLEGE JUBILEE.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE "SrEcrArop..".1
Sia,—May we ask the aid of your oolumna in order to remind Cliftonians scattered through the world that, in view of the approaching Jubilee of Clifton College, representative gatherings of Old Cliftonians have decided to present the school with an additional ground for games P The land selected comprises forty-eight acres, stands high, and gives an extensive view over Somerset. The proposed gift meets a real need, and will be of great value in the life of the school.
The Jubilee is to be celebrated during the week ending July 13th, and in order that the gift may be completely paid for and provision made for erecting necessary buildings and properly laying out the ground, part of which is already being made use of by the school, to the great benefit of the Close, it is desired to raise an additional £10,000 during the next three months. Many Cliftonians have already contributed to the scheme, many others are in distant parts and their addresses unknown. No doubt there are amongst them men who would be glad to show generosity to their old school by assisting this project. May we invite all such, and any others who have not yet helped, to send subscriptions to Mr. Arthur Stone, 5 Finsbury Circus, London, E.C.? And as the date is now very near may wo invite them do so without delay ? Thanking you for your courteous aid, we are, Sir, &c.,
SYDNEY BUXTON. FRANCIS YO1UNGIITJE9AND.
