The Lincoln Building.
The Lincoln building and its old
predecessor the Sixth ward building
dates back to 1880. The original build
ing was a two story brick structure
with two rooms situated on he pres
ent site of the Lincoln building, 1t was
most peculiar Of construction, having
a tower at one corner which was near
ly as large as the building itself. AT
| that time the board owned all the
block in which the building Is now
located, but sold half Of 1t several
years ago.
There is picture of the building in
the superintendent's Office from 1t 1t
seems that the building was almost
at the edge of the city. Now 1t is
located in one of the most thickly
settled residence districts in the city.
In 1885 four story addition was
made to the building, the tower hav-
ing been torn of and the new addition
placed in front OF the two old rooms
forming a ct" This addition cost
$13, 900 and the remodeled building was
the largest structure at the time bar
ring the Central school. Here school
was held until the big fire of 1898
when 1t and it's contents were destroy
ed by that terrible confiagration.
The present building was erected
soon after the fire. However while
it was being constructed school was
held in various places. The Potts
house, the English Lutheran, Swedish
T.ilfharo, H1 0av, e,,o rro
tional churches were used for school
purposes temporarily
This building now contains eight
rooms. There are eight teachers doing
the instruction in grades from the pri-
mary to the eigth. This building is
surrounded with nice trees and a
playground, which is rather small for
the number of pupils which attend.
1t is evident that the board of edu-
cation in charge at the time that half
of the block was sold, did not know
what a rapid development the city
| schools would make or they would
have kept this part Of the property.
The Washington Building.
| The Washington school building is
located in the Second ward on the
/
land park. This building was con-
structed in 1898 on lots at the corner
of Fourth street and First avenue
south 1t is OF brick, two stories in
height and contains four rooms There
are four teachers instructing in tn,
grades from the primary to the sixth

Undoubtedly this building has 10

one Of the incest in the city. It il
