H H Twombly. Secretary Of the Board
of Education recently requested of the
Commissioners that a telephone service be
installed Il the Peabody and Maury school
buildings The matter was referred TO the
Electrical Engineer for his consideration
and report. and he now informs the Com
missioneTs that the nearest available tel
ephone wire TO the Peabody and Maury
schools IS at the Lincoln School. at the
corner Of Second and c Streets southeast
To extend this wire 10 the two schools
as requested, he says, would require 1G,
600 feet of wire, which, with the cost Of
stringing and Of installing the instru-
ments, would amount 10 $193-50. The
Electrical Engineer states that the cir
cult thus made would be weakened. and
would result in an imperfect service, for
which reason he thinks that the circuit
should be made metallic.
The Electrical Engineer then calls at
tenJiCn TO the condition of the appropria-
tiOn for the telephone and telegraph sery-
ice. and informs the Commissioners that
there IS already a deficit in that approprf-
alton. and he recommends that an item OF
S147S-13 be asked Tor in the Deficiency
Appropriations bill that being the esti-
mated amount of the cost OF installing
the telephones in the two schools with the
metallic circuit This recommendation
