doing a splendid work along this
line, but they are not yet able to
meet the great demand of this
class of students. The new
school will probably be located
near Forest Hill. The real es-
tate agents are trying TO find a
place suitable IN every way for
this great enterprise. Miss Alice
g. Hinckley, a noted mental di
agnostician, will be in charge
