MENDs APPROPRIATION TO
COVER COSTS.

Following up the principle laid
down by the finance committee. that
body last night after having heard
from Superintendent Chandler and
President Ebel. OF the school board.
in reference TO the vast needs OF
Baker school. determined to recon-
mend to council an appropriation of
31s.soo for the purpose Of building
q much-needed annex to that school.
1t was stated by DR.. Chandler that
the Baker school last session had
been compelled to double classes.
There are but twelve rooms to this
seven pupils to a room. 1t IL
coiored school located at Baker and
st John streets. Shorter hours had
to be given the children. Teachers
had to double their work. the pupils
did not receive the instruction which
they might have received.
DR.. Chandler and President Ebel,
feeling the necessity Of more rooms
with better facilities, deem an addi-
ton to this school an absolute neces-
sity.
The finance committee expressed
themselves as feeling the same. and
with one accord determined to make
the recommendation.
This proposed addition win not be
ready by the opening Of the next ses-
sion. but the building OF the annex
will not interfere with present ar
rangements. and before the term has
progressed to its half year. 1t 10 hoped
the work on the annex will have been
completed.
Superintendent Chandler said last
night that work would begin the min
ute the appropriation appeared In
