The early establishment OF scientific hign
and normal school has become q necessity.
Upon the completion Of the Franklin school
building. rooms for such a school could be SET
apart therein, to be used until the finances of
the city will justify the erection of building
exclusively for the purpose. The manifest adj
vantage resulting from such an institution lead
me 70 hope that by the time Of tue opening OF
the public schools for the next scholastic wear
authority will be given TO establish one on such
a basis as will give 10 IL the utmost efficiency
i. nd usefulness.
