HIGH SCHOOL SITE.

The HefTernan Lot on East Main Street
 Strongly Supported by For Many
 Good Reasons. -N
 What lot will the committee appointed to select a site for the proposed new high school building recommend? is question which quite a good many people would like to have answered. It was stated at a meeting of the board of education the other evening that all were a unit on the Kingsbury lot, but from what can now be learned a difference of opinion has crept in and many favor other sites. Since the board was looking up sites two years ago building lot has been sold of the Kingsbury property and the owners are still asking the same prlce. Some of the members of the committee deny this and maintain that this lot was sold at the time and that the board was aware of the fact, Real estate men are using every possible means to turn the attention of the com mittee to the sites on their "for sale" lists so that it behooves the members to be on the alert and secure the best possible bar gain for the district
 There are number of people who are not satisfied with either of the sites which the committee seem to be divided on. the Kingsbury and Spencer lots. It is argued that the surroundings are not at all in keeping with a high school and what is s i'll worse the statement is hazarded that there is not sufficient land on either lot for building such as it is proposed to erect and leave good playground. A new site has been suggested which many think su- perior to any that has yet been mentioned. It is the Hefferman lot at the junction of East Main and Dublin streets.
 A we'll known citizen said to-day: It certainly has many advantages over any yet discussed. It is on the line of the trolley csrs within seven minutes walk of the center contains four acres of land, several | delightful shade trees and can be had several thousand dollars cheaper than any of the others. and as it fronts East Main | and Dublin streets. it never can be crowded. The committee should pause before sinking one-fourth of the $10o. .0O0 appropriated for this purpose in lot, and see if more desirable site can be had in a convenient place for much less money. The Heffernan lot is we'll worth looking over and if the future is to be considered in this matter. as it should be. I think it will be difficult to show why it is not by far the best selection the committee could make. It is only few hundred feet fur ther removed from the center than the kingsbury lot, Is sevaral times larger, cheaper and situated in a much more de. sirable locality.

THE DAILY PRESS.


 F('ther owen Tells What is Goad
 and Rad i'm American Literature.
 Rev Father 0'Nsil, the we'll known Dominican preacher, delivered an address in the Sacred Heart church last night His subject was ''Literature and Good Read ing, and he was listened to with attention by the large audience.
 Father O'Neil began by saying that after the Catholic church there is no power in the world equal to the power of the press. It has influence for good or bad. In the press there are two opposing forces; the one good, the other bad. He criticized the daily press, although admitting that it's functions were not only lawful, but neces. sary that we may be intelligent. A good daily paper, he said. was a history. The good and the bad must be told. But" he added, "my own opinion is that too much of what is not good is told" Fathers and mothers may read the daily they should be careful what their children read. as the cleanest daily papers are open to much that is not good He said that people who read nothing but the daily papers are of limited intelligence and of narrow views, but admitted that the American public was too much addicted to newspaper reading and had neither time nor inclination to read anything else.
 After disposing of the daily paper Father ONeil then called attention to the sensa- tional literature of the day. the novels and publication containing insinuations of thin ly yelled impurities. He warned his hearers against what he called ''the flood of i'm, pure literature that is sweeping over the country" and thanked God that laws were being enacted against such damnable litera- ture Tn many places.
 Lastly Father o'Neil spoke upon the subject of Catholic reading He said that last year slO0, ,OOO.O00 was spent for daily and weekly papers in the United States, while he doubted that one half million dol lars was spent for Catholic reading by the 10000, GOO Catholic people. He urged all Catholics to read good books and mag aZines and said that the Catholic publica- tions were equal in every respect to the best secular works.
 At the close of the services many of the congregation subscribed for the Rosary Magazine, of which Father O'Neil is the representative.
