VITAL
Need Of New School Building
On West Side
Brought Out At A Meeting Of
The Residents

The vital need of new school
building in the Second ward was
touched upon at great length and in
minute detail Friday evening, when
100 residents of the ward gathered in
the present structure for the purpose
Of discussion.
Enthusiasm ran high among the az
sembly, but a grim determination to
bring the matter to a successful out
come was behind all that was said
and done.
Present at the meeting were Pres
ident Strang and Clerk c. N. Lorey
Of the board of education and Supt.
p. C. Zemer of the Mt. Vernon
schools. All three made addresses,
encouraging the citizens in their
hopes.
The main reasons advanced for the
erection of new building we're:
The present structure, one OF the
very Oldest in the city, has only two
rooms and, as the state law provides
that only 40 pupils may be seated in
one class room, children are either
automatically excluded or forced to
seek their education in another build
ing.
In going to another building, it is
necessary for over 200 children Of
very tender years to cross the 3. &
o. tracks at times when there is much
switching of trains. Their lives are
thereby imperiled.
Since these conditions exist, there
is but one alternative that will insure
the progress of education in this sec
tion Of the city in safe manner and
this is, the erection Of a new building.
The residents of the Second ward
are strongly in favor of the building
and believe the only obstruction to be
in lack of interest on the part of
other residents of the city. "If every
body only knew what we are up
against" stated one prominent Sec
ond ward resident, 'they wouldn't
hesitate in giving us new building" /"
An elaborate and pretentious struc.
ture is not desired by the second ward
citizens. One that will conform to
the Ohio school code, that is well
lighted and sanitary and has ample
room to provide for seating all chill
dren resident in the section is all
that is desired
1t is understood that a special cleo.
tion will probably be set in the near
future, at which time the proposition
will be placed before the voters

mendous boom today, when several
hundred members of the Sportsmen's
club registered for the first spring
hike, which will be made tomorrow
The mixers will hit the trail toward

will undoubtedly be record breaker,
for other clubs and societies will join.
The Illinois Camera club joins in the

pictures of all the places visited. The
Chicago hikers' forces will hit differ

Washington Wanderlusters, who hit

in the Chicago hikes, it is expected.

ARMORY
For Mt. Vernon |
Determined Upon
And Site viii Be Chosen
Early Next Week

The citizens committee having to
do with an armory for Battery D, held
meeting at the city council cham.
Der Friday afternoon at which re.
port was made by Judge F o. Levering
for the committee that went to Colum-
bus Thursday in connection with the
matter.
After discussion of the subject it
was determined to proceed with the
work Of securing an armory, and it was
directed that the officers of the COM
mittee communicate with the state ar
mory board and invite a visit by a
representative Of the armory board
and that their architect be requested to
prepare and present tentative plans
for the building.
Later in the afternoon Chairman
Marcus Rosenthall telephoned to the
adutant generals Office at Columbus
and reported the action of the citizens
committee. He was informed that
Col. Bartlett of the armory board and
Major Best, the architect, would come
to Mt. Vernon on Monday or Tuesday
to view the sites on which options
have been taken and to submit plans
for the building. At that time one
of the sites will be selected and other
preliminaries arranged for proceeding
with the work.

ATHLETICaCARNIVAL
by IhelHIgh.. School Friday Night A
Great Success

One of the most successful carni.
walls or penny socials ever held in this
city was given by the high school
Friday evening. The purpose of this
carnival was to raise some money
which was needed By both the boys
aud girls athletic associations. About
five or six hundred persons attended
this carnival and the result was that
handsome sum was realized.
All Of the attractions took well with
those attending, one of the greatest
attractions being the incubator
baby" in one of the shows on
high table reposed Hester Jones, All
Ohio High School Guard. He was at
tired in six-foot white cambric baby
dress, trimmed with pink baby rib
bon. On his head white cap which
was also trimmed with pink ribbon.
In his hand was teddy bear and
milk bottle. A red cross nurse at
tended him. Another attraction
which took exceedingly well was the
shoCt-the-chutes. From the very min
ute the doors were opened until the
last dog was hung" the shoot-the-
chutes was overrun by the younger
generation. The fish ponds were a
complete success in every way and
all the "fsh" had been caught long
before the entertainment was over.
The fortune-telling booths kept the
sign. Standing Room Only, out all
the time. The tea room was also
very popular. This room was pretti-
ly decorated with Japanese lanterns
and all the girls who served tea were
attired in Japanese costumes.
One of the greatest attractions,
however, was the minstrel show Civ.
en- by Mrs. Witherell's seventh grade
pupils. The actors in this show rep
resented the high school basket ball
players. Many original jokes were
cracked and several good songs rem
dered, among them was one sung
by "Chick Clayton" the title of which
was, TITS Nice 10 Have a Girl in Ev-
cry Town." Another one. sung by
"Art Bonds" was entitled, 'T Hope
to Meet Murphy in the Sweet Bye
and-bye." Another feature of this
show was the team, Tyler and Payne.
With Ken Payne at the piano, "Dick"
executed some of his most difficult
steps along the clog dancing line.
This was undoubtedly the hit Of the
evening. The basket ball team" was
made up as follows:
Earl Hess-Russell Eastman.
George Crumley-Pugh Hillbrant.
Myron Neese-Arthur Bonds.
Paul McFeeley-Charles Clayton.
John Burris-William Shut.
Elmer Speelman-Howard Blair.
, Fred Stamm-Hester Jones.
| George Burris-Harry Hayes.
Nelson Burris-Robert Severns.
The picture contest at this carni-
val was won by the seventh grade of
the Third ward The seventh grade
| pupils had a plurality of approximate
ly seventy-five votes.
