ARE AF TER SITE FOR
 SCHOOL FOR BLIND
Chamber of Commerce Will Take Steps Looking To-
 ward Raising Funds

Steps are to be taken by the Chamber of Commerce within the near future to- ward raising money to buy site for the proposed state school for the blind. all appropriation of s25.o0o for which has been proposed in the state legislature It is stated that the proper committee will doubtless consider in the near future a plan for bringing the school to Birming- ham.
 The proposed school is to be located at the place giving the most desirable site, as the whole appropriation of S25, ,O0g is desired to be used for the construction of the building. It Is generally under stood that it will be located either ir Birmingham or Montgomery
 It is believed here that If the citizen, raise money to buy an attractive site ol some parties could be prevailed upon tc donate site that there would be little difficulty in bringing the proposed school to this city.
 While at the first the school will not be so pretentious, additional state appro priations undoubtedly will be made from time to time and in future ears the institution undoubtedly will become on, of the foremost in the state.
