Spends Time Making Use
full Furniture to Add to
Comforts of Houses.

Enrolment in the night school will
continue tonight and tomorrow night,
when all classes will be open from
7:16 to 9:15 o'clock A large number
enrolled last night. and many of the
instructors reported that all OF their
pupils of the first term would be back.
There were also several new members
in each Of the classes, and school off,
cials predict that the enrolment rec
ords will be broken by Friday night.
Class work will begin tonight. and
classes will be open tomorrow night
for the benefit Of those who wish to
enroll at that time. Glasses Will meet
again on Friday night. Beginning
with next week all classes Will meet
on Tuesday and Friday evenings at
7:15 o'clock
Continue Fall Work.
In many classes the work will be
a continuation of that done last term.
In most of the vocational classes the
pupils have started on some practi-
cal line OF work which they wish to
continue. In the wood working classes
under Mr. Hybarger. most OF the men
are building articles OF furniture Tor
their homes and they will continue
on the same pieces.
As AZ. many of the other classes, the
teacL is trying to make the work
suit Inc individual needs of each pu-
pill, ad instead Of putting in the time
on small models and exercises, Mr..
Hybarger believes in spending the
same amount of time on articles that
will be really useful. One man was
making a set Of porch furniture, an.
other u nall tree. while third pupil
was proudly showing his wife part
of a piano bench that he was making
for the home,
Others among the pupils OF last
term have enrolled in other lines or
work this time. with the Idea that 1T
will be better to get smatterlns OF
several different subjects.
School officials anticipate an enroll
ment OF about 500 by the end OF the
week.

ENGINEER ADVISES
MODEL BUILDING
Fred Charles Directs Atten-
ton to Experimental Block
e. in East End.

The report of City Engineer Fred
Charles shows that Richmond has
6S.183 miles of streets, only 5.64 miles
being brick, and 2.444 miles cement.
There are 27.137 miles OF street made
OF gravel or boulders and 21.666 miles
Of macadam streets. Richmond now
has 48.22O miles of sewers, their be-
ing 88 Of a mile of sewers built the
past year. Mr.. Charles in his report
writes:
"In transmitting the annual report
Of this department for the year end
ing December 81, 1914, desire to
thank you and the other officials for
courtesies and cooperation rendered.
and the members of the department
for faithful service and interest In the
work.
"As you see, we have succeeded in
paving some of our principal thorough
fares which have long needed it. Es-
pecial attention Is called to South
Nineteenth street. which is built as a
model street. Concrete sidewalks
curbs and cutters, and roadway; sew
er and water connections to each lot;
underground conduit for telephone and
electric light; ornamental street lights
in center of parkway. Truest econ
omy will result from building our
streets in this manner; first, the un-
derground structures, complete, and
then permanent roadway pavement
1--WE have made good progress on
the Morton park sewer system, al
though it is not completed in time to
be included in this report.
81 would again call attention to the
need of adequate relief sewers in sew
eral parts of the city. North E street
can be relieved by constructing sew
err in North Twelfth street, which can
best be done in connection with an
undergrade crossing of the railroad
which has long been desired, and
would add immensely to the safety
and convenience of the public, and re
suit in eventual economy to the rail
road, and increase the property values
north of the tracks.
The filter beds at the sewage dis
pOsal plant should be enlarged. The
growth of that part of the city has in
creased the duty Of these beds. A
sewer system and disposal plant /:
needed for the region west Of Wes
Ninth street, from the National roaC
north.
Attention is again called to the ne
cessity Of painting the river bridges
This has been neglected for number
Of years, pending decision as tt
whom the duty properly belongs, tn
city or the county. But 1t must b.
done by some one, or the deterioration
will be beyond repair.
1.-THE Street Railway company ha
finally extended its tracks from Soutl
H street to South N street, under tn
supervision Of this department., a
we'll as In North Nineteenth stree
from G to street, but the crossing a
the P, c., c. and St. L railway there
by is still in allegiance.
81 wish again to emphasize the ad
visibility of planning the next sea
sons work in the fall and winter, s.
as to let the contracts as soon afte
January l as possible, as thereby BET
ter bids can usually be obtained, an
a longer season allowed for the cor
struction work"
