railway was started in September.

the first sod at Fort William. At
about the same time the actual con-

RICHMOND is A FINE CITY
IN FACT, ONE OF THE BEST IN
THE COUNTRY, THE EDITOR
THINKS PRAISES FOR THE
NEW HIGH SCHOOL.

A. E. Winship of Boston. Mass. edi-
tor of the Journal of Education. and
one of the leading educators of the
country, has as his lead editorial for
last weeks issue an article on the
Richmond schools. He was in the
city in the spring. He says in part.
in the editorial.
For fourteen years, Richmond, Ind,
has been one of the best school cities
of the country in that it has been do
ing better things in a better way each
year.
The city itself is one of the best in
the country. With a population ris-
ing 10000, it is one of the wealthiest
cities of the size. city that has never
had any financial disturbances, city
which has had wealthy citizens, and
sons to give a city hospital and a
quarter million dollar church, that
has elected it's best citizens upon the
school board and has the finest of
men willing to serve. that has citi-
zens ready to vote school moneys
freely and a school board willing to
listen to its superintendent and heed
his advice.
Unique New Building.
There is new high school building
which though costing but 100000
fully equipped. is a record breaker in
many essential features. It Is mot
easy in this age Of the world when
famous new high school houses have
been built in many cities, to have an
entirely unique building. The audi
forum is in the front, absolutely at
the front, lighted by large Illuminated
windows. 1t is a beautiful opera-ef.
feet hall seating 500, on the ground
floor. entered by front doors on either
side of the front center SO as to en-.
ter the auditorium inside on the
sides. Thus It may be used for any
purpose at any time without in the
least disturbing the school or being
disturbed by it.
Over this auditorium Is the art gal
lery, fire proof of course. as is the
entire building. This art feature IL
significant as it will not only leave the
school and public are treasures here
but 1t will be used frequently for ART
exhibitions. In the body and center Of
the building is the gymnasium which
is only one story high. so that the
rest of the building, three stories, will
have air and light from both sides.
There is every equipment for every
thing in Industrial and domestic sci
ence on the ground floor and every
laboratory convenience on the uppel
floor.
