Another High school Needed.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
There Is growing need OF a hgi
school on Church Hill. Daily hundreds
OF delicate girls may be seen trudginl
through all sorts OF weather and yer,

Marshall streets. From appearances one
would Judge that by FAR the majorit,

In many cases they are physically unable
TO endure the exposure and fatigue. CoulC
not those In charge make some provision
by which this could be obviated-say q
branch high school? The crowded state
of the High School seems 10 point t'
some such necessity. and our hearts are
deeplv Interested In this matter. so W.
make use of this method of bringing i
before the public mind.
