BaSlng their claims upon these flg-
ures, residents petitiOned the school
board, and that body some time ago APP
pointed special committee to look the
matter up. For some reason or other
the committee has failed to dignity
their appointment even by report,
and a meeting of the heaviest property
holders of the district was held to-day
for the purpose of devising some means
of bringing the matter to definite uu-
Outstanding. At Twenty-fifth avenue
west one of the handSomest school
buildings of the city is being erected,
and against this there is protest, but it
is insisted that as that immediate vicin-
ity does not contain one-half the assess
able property that's embraced in the sec
ton mentioned, IL is only justice to give
it the desired public building. The
heaviest property owners and taXpay-
ers in the city are anxious for it, and as
they bear the larger burden for the
maintenance of public schools, it would
seem that their request would be needed.
Besides the hundreds of families who are
incOnvenienced by the existing order Of
things, there are hundreds of others
who would remove there and build
homes If they could be assured of con-
venient school building. The board of
education will be given an opportunity
tn ai tO n NIT nf ri
why it does not take action If it persists
in ignoring the question longer.
