SUGGEST PURCHASE OF
SITE FOR BUILDING

The committee recently named by
Evening Star Lodge No. 20, Knights
of Pythias. to investigate the posi-
bilities for securing a large commun-
ity center building for Pullman, re-
ported on its findings at the meet
ing of the lodge Monday evening.
The committee, which includes c. N.
Curtis. Thomas Neill and G. w Laid
law, was continued for further duties
in the same connection. The repor,
suggested the organization of a locaf
corporation to have charge of the
community center, with the manage
ment including representatives from
all the organizations of the city
rather than a single organization
or group. The committeeman sug-
gested that the matter be taken up
at once with Maynard-Price post OF
the American Legion, which was the
first organization to take definite
steps toward making a community
center possible, and that steps be
taken toward securing, as soon as
possible, a suitable location for the
building. All organizations interest
ed, but no single organization in
charge, with ample provision made
for those things the people of the
community desire and will make use
of, is one of the pertinent suggestions
of the committee. The entire find
ings of the committee will be tran
scribed and submitted to Maynard
Price post, as well as other organiza-
tions, with view to enlisting the
support of ali in the campaign which
will bring to Pullman one of the best
community center buildings in the
Northwest.

'no slA1h grade, Superintendent
Henry maintains, he ought to be pro-
noted by subjects rather than nv
grades.
