A two-story frame building which was
well built at the beginning, and on
commodious school ground, which gets
but little attention from the School
Board. The school building needs
painting badly, and two OF the rooms
need new floors equally as pad OF
worse. The second-story north room
has been fixed up fine and Is creull
to the school. Notwithstanding tlal
the State Board of Health has requlr-
ed that children has required tha'
children shall face blank walls theie
is one room in this school where thls
order is disregarded, and for no good
reason. A system of heating ana ven
