school and where musicales and gen
eral school programs may be given.
Sueh gatherings are of great inspira.
tiol Il value in the life of a child. and
foster a school spirit which is very de
sirable. This assembly hall also pro.
vides place for the showing of NOV
ing pictures which are coming into
inc easing use il the education of chill
dren.
BY proper planning of the floor,
space could be allowed for physical
training in this hall.
1t would be a distinctly backward
step for Wauwatosa to construct new
graded school building without an ade-
quate assembly room.
Light and air are requisite in a good
school room. A number of rooms in
the present central grade building are
so lacking in these prime essentials
as to be unfit for use for school pur-
poses.
The plan of the new building pro
vides for the construction of an eight
roo munit during the coming summer,
relieving congestion in the old build
ing and allowing for the closing of the
rooms actually unfit for use
Additional units can be built from
time to time, as need arises without
calling upon the city to finance large
enterprise in advance of actual needs.
The plan for the building will be
made in such wise as to allow for the
construction of these units as they are
needed, without an ugly built on APP
pearance at any stage.
BY the time the structure is com
pleted, according to the original plan,
Wauwatosa will have beautiful, sani-
tary graded school house, something to
which her citizens can point with
pride, a building that will attract res
idents to her, an asset 10 the COM
munity.
