TRAINING SCHOOL
Complimentary Notice Given
Sank Centre By the Press
WON CASE ON MERITS
A Little Criticism By Towns Who
Wanted the School But Failed
TO Land the Prize

The newspapers have been saying
many nice things about Sauk Centre
in connection with the location of the
girls training school here. All ac-
knowledge that this city won on the
merits of the case and that the loca-
tion WAS the best offered the state
some of the comments:
Of course. Sauk Centre is central
place for the state girls school.
Thers can't be any dispute about
that-Minneap Journal.
The site chosen for the girls school
demonstrates that the desire of the
state was recognized and appreciated
by the board OF control, and that the
doubt expressed in a few instances, OF
the unsuccessful separation, was a
doubt upjustified by subsequent ac-
tion. The board evidently has the
welfare OF the state under constant
consideration. It cannot afford TO
TO abdicate It's Judgment to popular
cianor, and this is weli.-St. Paul
Distpatch.
BY all odds the site selected, On
| The shores of beautiful Sauk Lake, IS
J the most desirable and handsomest
that was offered. The objections
made by ATr. LeaVett of the board,
/ thai there was another state instltu-
lion IN SteaIps county, is not credit
able to that gentlenians Judgment.
he times congrataiates Sauk Centre
as well as the state upon the excellent
selection made. The ladies of the state
who have been instrumental in secur-
ing a separation of the girls from
the boys' school, are also to- be con-
graduated on the fine location chos-
en.-St. Cloud Times.
Tie Journal-Press congratulates
both The board of control and the city
of Sank Centre on the location OF
/ the girls training school. The school
site at Sauk Centre is ideal, and IL
is y-olI located to be economically ad-
m,nistered by the board.-St. Cloud

/ This is a piece of good luck for our
| SISTER ciry down the line that we

/ fer 1t is the policy OF the board OF

state institution as much as possible

ants. The last legislature appropriat
ed $4,000 for the construction OF
suitable buildings.-Osakis Review
Mr.. Leavett is not pleased with the
selection of Sauk Centre as the home
of the girls training school. Mr.
/ Leavett is SO happily constituted thai

fied.-St. Cloud Journal-Press.
The state board of control has de
cided to cate the new girls train
ing school at Sank Centre, that be
ing the most centrally located loca
tion and affording best railroad fac
ilities. We think the board show
Z ed good judgment in making that Sc
lection. There are two normal school
located on the boundary line just be
cause some one with pull wit
had real estate to sell donated few
acres of ground. It is therefore !
relief to see wiser methods used b
selecting locations for state institu
