Street School could be accommodated also in this school.
 In order to provide for the colored pu- pills in the southwestern part of the city, additional school room will be needed. We have one unoccupied room at Day Street School. We are informed that an ar rangeHent can be made with the trus- tees of the Lanzridge Academy to use that building. The Superintendent in- forms us that at small expense two good school rooms may be provided there. An additional building in the southeastern part of the city will be needed for the colored pupils. In order to accommodate the colored pupils in Vesuvius and North Montgomery a four-room building will be needed fin that part of the city. Certain Improvements are necessary in some of the buildings within the old city limits. New and improved sanitary fix lures are needed at Sayre and Heron Street Schools of similar design to those recently placed at Capitol Hill School. The composition blackboards at Capitol Hill Street should be replaced with slate and the interior of the building repaint- ed. In this building and at Sayre Street School an office should be provided for the principal.
 We consider it essential to the health of the pupils that systems of ventilation be installed in the Capitol Hill and in tbe Sayre Street School buildings. Drink ing fountains should be provided on all of the school grounds and besides this there are many other matters of minor consideration that need not be mentioned at this time.
 In addition to the new school buildings needed school desks and other furniture must be supplied. a detailed statement of which will be furnished by the Super intendent of Schools at the proper time.
