the HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING
A Magnificent and Commodious Edi-
fee Constructed to Educate Mitca-
ellis Young People.

IL was fourteen years ago this
month that the first high school
building of Mitchell-that is a build
ing of any proportions-was dedicat-
ed. 1t with the brick building on the
south side and cost the citizens $685.
900. 1t was thought that it would
last for a quarter of a century-that
1T would indeed be a long time before
another such a building would be
needed. That shows how little the
people can reckon on the growth of
their town. 1t wasn't eight years be-
fore the conditions commenced to he
crowded in that then new building
and for five years there had been a
constant and growing demand for a
new high school building.
Three years ago a mass meeting
was held in the city hall building and
1T was demanded that an election
should be called to vote the necessary
bonds. Over a year went by and it
was thought perhaps the enthusiasm
had waned, but it came to the sur
race again and a year ago last spring
the vote was taken on the bonds,
which were carried without much
trouble, and $4,000 vas voted for
VIZ 0ASCA 1SC. WOEh was D0RunE on
the structure in November, 1908,
some concrete footings were put in,
and the work rested until last spring,
when It was resumed, and at the pres
ent time the immense structure
stands completed.
The old Lincoln school building,
on Fifth Avenue east, was moved
back from the center Of the block end
the site placed there for the new
building, and it is a very advan-
tageous one. It has been necessary
to remove a number Of the trees to
give the proper view Of the outline of
the structure. The building stands
on q fine elevation, which permits of
q high basement, and withal 1t is pro-
nounced as not having a superior in
the state. Competent judges have
viewed the building in course Of CON

Several changes were made in the.
way of additions in parts of the
building and substituting better ma
terial, which will bring the cost
close to $50, 900. However, in the
matter of extras they will not exceed
the sum of $500, which speaks vol
umes Of praise for the board in keep
ing so close to the first estimate.
Patton & Miller, of Chicago, are
the men who have given Mitchell
such an attractive building, and while
their services were higher than
others there certainly can be no re-
,grets expressed for having secured
them to design the building, and
make of it just exactly what the
board of education wanted-to fill
eIsM sueId eqL emoo OF sIgeG eql
all the requirements, and build 1t for
not accepted by the board until they
had things just as they wanted them,
and Patton & Miller showed the
most generous kind of a spirit in
helping the board to arrive at the
proper conclusion. The architects
placed a superintendent in the per-
son of Geo. Hughill in charge of the
constructive work, and it had to pass
muster before his inspection before
the work was paid for, and then only
on a certificate issued by the archi,
tects to the clerk of the board. n
The general. architecture of the
building is Of Tudor design; built Of
dark colored brick, the walls being
IL inches thick. The basement IL
high, and there are two stories above
that, with an attic that affords much
room and can be utilized for many
purposes. The floors In the class
rooms are Of heavy timbers, while
the corridors on each floor, the lock-
er rooms and toilet rooms in the base
ment, also the gymnasium room {
of reinforced concrete. All stair
ways in the building are Of iron, with
rubber mating. and practically make
the building entirely dreproof. All
interior partitions are Of solid brick.
The roof over the main portion Of tho
building is carried by heavy rafters
resting on iron beams and columns;
the roof over the assembly room 10
carried by wood trusses.
A heating and ventilating system.

struction and have unhesitatingly

.struction and have unhesitatingly
made such a declaration.
The board Of education has devoted
much time to this work, and a part
of two sets of men have been asso-
ciated in the enterprise. The first
board was composed of o. T. Itch
field, A. B. McKeel, DR.. E. w. Hey
Ter, Geo. E. Foster, and Gottlieb
Scheurenbrand. They have gone
through with the greatest part of the
work. President Litchfeld has Civ
en- unsparingly of his time, and very
few days have passed but what he
has been giving his personal attention
to things. Messrs. Scheurenbrand
and Foster for the year they we're on
the board, showed much interest, and
Mr.. Scheurenbrand's knowledge on
building matters was found to be very
useful. With the election last sum-
mer S. e. Morris ano w. A. Branch
succeeded Messrs. Scheurenbrand
and Foster, and they have made two
earnest workers on the project.
The contract was awarded to Moore
& Banner, of Kokomo, Ind, who
were at the time engaged on the con-
struction of the federal building, and
these men have been faithful and con-
scientious in their work to give the
citizens of Mitchell the very best pos
sible work and to finish the structure
so that it would be a credit to them
and to the city. The members of the
board of education have felt all the
time that they were fortunate to Sc
cure the services of these competent
men, and the good work throughout
attest to their honesty of purpose.
Either Mr.. Moore or Mr.. Banner has
been constantly in attendance on the
work to see that everything went
we'll. They have practically finished
their work within the time specified,
when it was learned of the delays
that were bound to ensue last sum
mer. Moore & Banner are entitled
to congratulations for the splendid
work they have done.
Hess, Rau & Co. were given the
heating and plumbing contract. and
their work is rapidly drawing to a
close. j. H. Till had the contract for
electric wiring A. T.. Greaves full
filed his contract in the matter of
decorations and his work has been
skillfully done throughout. Mr..
Greaves used good taste in the mat
ter of designs and colors. The Chi
cago Gas & Electric Mfg. Co. furn-
ished the fixtures for electric lights,
the design of which is very attractive.
Fl. C. Knisely, of Chicago, had the
contract for placing the tile roof.

that were awarded at various times

ventilating system. In the basement
is a huge revolving fan, perhaps four
feet in diameter, run by a Troy en-
CINE, and which receives its steam
from thirty-horse-power boilers in the
engine room. A door from the south
opens into an entrance leading to the
revolving fan. To the east of the fan.
is placed two sets of coils, which re-
ceives steam from the boilers. The
fan is set in rapid motion and the
cold air is driven through the coils,
heated and then carried to the rooms
of the building. 1t is controlled by
the thermostat system, which opens
and closes the hampers at a certain
degree of heat. Aside from this sys-
tenn radiators are placed in the rooms
which are utilized in cas- Of accident.

Within a short time in the morning,

There are two entrances to build

in which she said she heard what she
thought was another person in the

Glover. He said that the jury must
determine whether there was any one
else there who might have had the
opportunity to shoot Glover.
He charged that the jury should eX-

reference to an alleged dying state

Referring to the girl being found In
hiding under the he'd in the Glover
house, Judge Bond said the jury was

herself voluntarily or was assisted in
hiding by some one else.

At that time he was one Of Professor

no had already done work which had
placed him in the front rank of sani-
tarians. Since then there has not been
year in which he has not made at
least one important contribution to the
advance of sanitary science. He Is an
indefatigable worker.
Professor Winslow has that rare
faculty of making his work tell. AS
an investigator he is at the very top.
