 Contractor Ahlstedt has the plans. specifications and drawings for the handsome addition to Crowley Ridge Institute. They are very interesting, and we had the pleasure to look them over on Tuesday. When completed this addition will make our school building one of the best appointed, most convenient and beautiful school buildings in the state. The additional room is very much needed ana will be a great boon to the children. All honor to our enterprising school board, for their liberal appropriation and the excellent judgment displayed in the plans adopted. The dear children will bless them for it some day, and it will always be a monument to their good sense and enterprise.
