The Committee on Real Estate reported as
follows:
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 2, 1885.
To the Honorable the Board of Education:
The Committee on Real Estate respectfully
report: That, for several reasons, it has
been thought best to change the site for the
school near Rice street. We have an offer
from Mr.. II. NJ. Rice of eight lots on the cor
ner of Western avenue and Front street for
$1,000. 1t is high and healthful and al
though little too far out for immediate
convenience, we think it will accom- modate
more families by the time it is finished than
the other location, and recommend its pur-
chase.
We recommend the adoption of plans for
above school building prepared by Mr..
Gauger.
Our attention has been called to the Har-
den hand grenade, and We recommend that
the Committee on Real Estate be authorized
to place them in schools that do not have fire
escapes or extuguishers, if, after public
trial they are convinced they will do what is
claimed for them. We also suggest that
brick pavements be put in the new school
easements instead Of cement or concrete, if
they shall be found more durable and cheaper
than the concrete. Respectfully submitted,
L. A GILBERT,
j. NJ. MINOR,
VIM. BERLANDI,
Committee on Real Estate.
