BE ANNEXED
High School Transfer Fees

Annexation of approximately one and
one fourth square miles of territory east
of Sherman Drive and north Of Sixteenth

Belt Railroad from Twenty First street
to Massachusetts avenue, on the north
by Massachusetts avenue, on the east by
sherman drive and on tn esouth by Six
teenth street. The annexation also in
cludes Twenty First street from Sherman
drive to Dearborn street. The street was
disanneXed some time ago to permit the
county to improve 1t.
The ordinance has been drafted too late
to permit the prospective new residents

able In order to avoid any controversy,
that the ordinance will be made effective

said.
