The board Of education at the meet
ing last night refused the use OF
Quincy school one night week for the
purpose of holding a Y w. c. A. gym
nasium class.
number of prominent citizens on
. the North side made a request to the
board of education to be granted the
use Of the Quincy school for the pur-
pose of opening branch public IL
brary without expense for heat, light
and janitor service" This request was
r~<erred back to the teachers commit
tee for further investigation.
1t seemed to, be the sentiment of the
board of education that furnishing
heat: light and janitor service for the
Quincy school library would be max
ing a bad precedent, as other schools
of the city would expect the same ia
vors.
The expense would be good deal for
wiring the room, furnishing shelves for
the books and janitor service, and as
the school funds are low. it was thought
best to refer the request back to the
committee for further investigation.
