viding he can secure location
for his lumber yard that is half

Dignan owns the lots adjoining
the lumber yard, which will be
necessary for the public build

to sell. The architect suggested
that the commercial club get an
option on the lumber yard cor
ner, showing tWo-thirds Of the
property necessary, and send it
to the secretary of the treasury
with a numerously signed petit
ton asking him to begin con
demnation proceedings in order
to procure title to the other

up to the secretary. This coulc

Harry G. Sherwood, of the

talking to the citizens generally,
Mr.. Sherwood discovered that
the sight that would give the
greatest satisfaction to the larg-

rolled has been very regular since
the opening Of school. The Man
uel-smith system Of heating and
ventilating has been placed in both
rooms and SO far as the system
has been used the past month it
has given excellent satisfaction.
Black boords are recognized gen
orally as one Of the very essentials
to any school room. They may be
advantageously used for many
purposes, such as for illustrating
the work Of the recitation, for OUT
lines for the study period, for class
work and for special work to be
frequently presented to the pupils.
In schools well supplied with
black oards it is discouraging to
find little or no use made Of them.
