ENLARGE THE SCHOOL GROUNDS.

The proposition to purchase the Fen
ton residence property adjoining the
Liberty school grounds for school pur-
poses Is not mnking much practical
progress. mainly. perhaps. by reason
of the press of other business ON the
control. AS far as the people of the
district are concerned we have nor
heard of any opposition TO the proposal
TO purchase. Til Investment seems To
bc in every way n desirable one. In.
deed. II Is plain now that II IL some.
thing which ought to have been done
years ago. when II was first proposed.
When the construction OF the Liberty
school WAS begun four years ago this
piece OF abutting property could have
been in,tl for one.half or at most ,wo-
thirds, OF what is likely 10 be asked
for IL now. And as u teachers resi-
dcnce II would have been paying good
interest on the investment up To the
present time. But now the property Is
positively needed for school room space
by the pressure of attendance In the
school building proper. II Is thought
that with little rcmo,lrling the house
can bc made to accommodate two
Glasses OF the primary grade. and the
