Must Build Moro Schools.
The $4,000 that the board villa ask
the voters to authorize them to levy
is wanted for several urgent and
future needs.
Among the most important OF these
needs are two school buildings that
will be required within few years, If
not by next year. One Of these will be
for the First the other for the Fifth
ward. One will supersede the new
John Childs, the other will supplement
the Arson school.
chiIds For High School.
The high school building, even with
the grade pupils out Of It now and in
the John Childs school, il crowded be-
cause of the increased attendance.
Superintendent Palmer estimates from
the known percentage Of pupils who
come each fall from the graded schools
into the high school that next fall the
high school attendance will increase to
100 or more If it does the high school
building will not hold them all.
In that case it is proposed to make
the John Childs school IN addition to
the nigh school and turn the grade
pupils out of 1t. For them, then. q
new building will be required. and part
! OF the money to be asked for will be
to purchase q site for this building.
Pupils in Arson basemsnt.
The Arson building is so crowded
| now that classes are being held In
basement rooms. which are UNIT for
such a purpose. OF the children who
attend the Arson school, 100 come
! from east Of Sixth avenue. The people
J Of the2southeast -sSctiont,of- the Fifth
ward are demanding a new building.
It is to buy q site for 1t that part OF
the money to be asked for will be used.
Other purposes for which the money
is wanted is for a heating and venti-
laaing plant for the Arnold school, esti-
mated to cost $4,000.
The Rogers school is crowded. More
room is needed. and can be added at
an estimate of not to exceed $4,000.
This amount is included in the budget
Of money. Additional room for play
grounds at some OF the schools is also
badly needed, and sum is included
in the budget for that purpose.

GIRLS WHO DISAPPEAR.
Most Pathetic incident In q Police
Commissioners Experience.

Most Pathetic incident In a Police
Commissioners Experience.
In the Woman's Home Compan-
ion Emily Barton Reid quotes Cen
cral Theodore A. Bingham, former
police commissioner of New York
city, as saying that $4,000 girls dis
appear annually in the United
States.
Nothing in his whole department
service, General Bingham confesscs,
filled him with greater pity than the
following single incident:
at was dusk in New York, the
hour when the streets are full of
men and girls hurrying from work.
The crowds streamed across Union
square toward the subway in a great
food-the whole population Of an
average country town passing the
corner every minute. Suddenly
around the corne whirled a great
express wagon. The driver whistled
shrilly, and the crowd, made wary
by long experience, scattered in all
directions, all but one girl. A sim
gle moment she hesitatcd, glanced
both ways, dropped back a step and
then, changing her mind, dashed
forward in an attempt to gain the
other side.
"The moments hesitation was too
much. The frightened horses rush
cd on. Ten minutes later her life
less body was borne away in an am
bulance to the city morgue.
"There were no marks of identi-
fication or the girls person. The
police were reduced to the necessity
Of publishing a description in the
newspapers, hoping that relatives
would come to claim the body. And
in answer to that description, which
was made as detailed and accurate
as possible, more than 300 mothers
and sisters wrote or appeared at the
morgue. More than 800 women
within reach Of the New York pa
pers confessed that girls whom they
loved. corresponding to the descrip-
ton Of this girl, had disappeared.
Not one of them was able to identi-
fv her. She was buried after a time
at the city's expense.
"Thrcc hundred women returned
to pursue their fruitless search else
where. What had become of the
300 girls for whom they searched"
