Grading of the grounds surround
ing schools s and Q and the grammer
school also received the consideration
of the committee. This question was
brought up about a month ago when
some members of the board declared
that the conditions around the
schools were anything but sanitary

A thorough investigation was con-
Quoted last week and 1t was then as
certained that grading work must be
done. 1t was decided to petition the
aldermen to establish grades at
schools s and 9. Bids will be asked
in all probability for paving the play

school. If this proves too expensive
a proposition the grounds will be dug
up, a grade will be made and layer
of fine cinders be placed there instead
of the paving.

uuested some time ago was not dis
cussed at all last night but will be
