A Building for You, By You You ARE respectfully and earnestly requested to contribute to the cost of the site andconstruction of this building—it and its surroundings known as Arcadia—the Homeof The Agassiz Association. The editor of this magazine has contributed this spacewherein this appeal may be made to you. You also are in sympathy with it becauseyou love nature, the great outdoors, education, recreation, inspiration, health, happinessand humanity. The Agassiz Association established in 1875, incorporated in 1892 (Massachusetts) andin 1910 (Connecticut), is world-wide in its work. It was recently made homeless by awealthy man who owned the property it occupied which had been promised permanently.He claimed his sole reason was out of friendship to the manager who was making too greatpersonal sacrifice in behalf of humanity, and because he and his family were workingwithout money remuneration. It is an interesting and surprising story. We will tell it toyou, if you will let us.
