The Caples tract seems to be
the fayorite choice of the people
of st. Johns as location for the
proposed high school building.
Its central location. easy accessi-
bility. improved streets. handi-
ness 10 the street ear line and
fine grove of trees makes II
ideal for the purpose. The ad-
visory board of the Community
Club favors this site provided
il can be secured at a reasona-
bic price, and we understand the |
school board is not adverse 10
IL. So If the owner and school |
board can agree upon a price |
there seems 10 be- no reason why |
the site should not be secured |
for the purpose. We under
stand that Miss Caples is will
ing to make quite a concession
in price for high school purposes.
