PROTESTING SCHOOL SITE.

Further protests against the proposed

LAS pastor Of the Metropolitan Baptist
Church. one of the largest churches in
this city, 1 come in contact with many
citizens and property owners in this Sec
ton. all of whom are deeply interested
in the location of the new colored Nor
NAL School, as their children will have
to attend same. In view of this fact 1
have been asked by them to write you a
personal letter, requesting that site
other than the one offered by Howard
University. at the corner of 4th and
College streets, be selected.
eff the school were erected on the
university site there does not appear to
be any direct entrance from the east
or north on account Of the reservoir;
furthermore. the site in question is d.
rectly opposite the District pumping sta
ton property and yard and stables. This
would. they contend. compel the young
girls just emerging into womanhood who
would necessarily attend the school to
be brought in too close contact with
those who may be employed about these
places. Still another important reason
is that the site is inaccessible. being too
far north to be of advantage to the
large majority of those who will at
tend Those coming over the Capital
Traction line will have to walk six or
eight blocks before reaching the school.
which would be a severe burden upon
the girls in bad weather.

kind consideration of the facts herein
stated or the reasons herein advanced
and with best wishes for the good of the
public schools in the District Of Colum
