Mr.. DAVIDSON PLANS
OPEN-AIR SCHOOLS.

\ plan to relieve cOngested condi-
ton of a number of schools by con-
structiOn OF inexpensive open air
frame buildings accommodating 200
children has been devised by q. j.
DAVIDSON. and was approved by the
school board Friday night.
The buildings have four rooms
each, and the estimated cost is So
600. The outer walls are a series
of windows extending from the cell
ing to the floor, which may be
thrown open in summer and spring
putting the pupils practically out OF
doors. In winter the windows may
be closed and the rooms cOmforta-
bly, heated
As soon as funds are in sight work
on three of the buildings as an
neXes to schools where the need is
greatest will be started, though the
present imperative economy makes
the need remain unsupplied Mr.
DAVIDSON is the designer of the
building, and says it is the only one
of its kind in the country.
