SCHOOLS HERE
ARE CROWDED
Situation is Discussed at the
Meeting of Local Board
of Education

The crowded condition of tho
schools of this city was brought tc
the attention of the Board of Ed.
ucation last night 1t its regular
session. when Superintendent S. f.
Shull read the enrolment for Sep
tember'r and compared these fig
ures with those of June, when
school closed. According to the fig
ures given out by the superinten-
dent there are 34S more pupils in
the schools today than at the close
of school. Already there are six
one-half day classes at school No,
s and there will be two one half
day classes at school No
s. The enrolment on September Z
was 7,776; in June the number was
7,42S.
Mr.. Shull's report also contained
the information that in the high
school all rooms are now in use, in
GLIDING two roong in the cellar. The
conditions left the board in more or
less of a quandary as where to put
the scholars. numbering possibly
120, who will come to the high
school beginning February 1. The
general opinion seemed to be the
crowded condition would become
worse as the year advances with no
hope whatever for relief.
The report submitted by Mr..
Shull, according to schools, follows:

pave streets, buy parks and for
other improvements if the school is
erected. The board is anxious, ac-
cording to Mr.. Sheehy. to go ahead
with the new building but has eX-
hausted every effort. He pointed
out that the Western Improvement
Association may make the aldermen
sit up and take notice, n declared
that more cooperation from the pub
lie is what is needed. SIT seems too
bad so little interest is taken by the
people," said Mr. Sheehy.
Chris Anderson, of the board, told
the delegation that the board is glad
to have their help and recalled the
conditions of some of the schools
where cellar rooms are in use. lie
declared that some of these looms
arr not fit for children to sit in.
J. T. %Jorgensen informed the
board that two years ago when the
association went before the alder
men on the street proposition the al
dermen asked. what do you want,
! paved streets or schools?" The
answer was schools"
Due to the high cost of building
at that time the matter vas not
pushed, according to Mr.. Jorgensen
| He pointed out that there have beer
no paved streets this year in thai
section and hat the school is needed
more than ever. He was of the
opinion that the cost of building
will not go down for the next ter
years and that he did not wan tc
see the children put on half time.
Mr.. Sellers questioned the delega'
ton concerning the criticism of the
location of the new school. 1t was
declared that the board could not
have found a better location for the
PROF osed building. The only criti-
cism, according to the delegation,
the delay in building the school.
Superintendent Shull declared
during the session of the board thai
the city has power to issue the bond:
necessary for the new building, an6
that he had called up the depart
ment at Trenton and had this con
firmed. He also said that he hat
discussed the matter with a leading
lawyer of the city and hat the law

law as is held by the Board Of

IRELAND WANTS TO GO
INTO LEAGUE OF NATIONS

GENEVA, Sept. S.-Ireland is to
apply to the assembly of the League
of Nations for membership, repre-
s~ertatives of the Irish government
here for that purpose, announced to-
day. AS soon as the Irish Parliament
meets tomorrow this action will be
taken.
1t is not expected England will CT
fer any opposition, and if she does
not there will probably be no other
votes against Ireland. Many Eng
lishmen think it would be a good
thing for London to admit Ireland
because there would be general rec
ognition of Ireland's status as a
member of the British Empire the
same as Canada, Australia and New
Zealand, which would automaticai-
~ render more difficult the endea-
vors OF the Independent faction.
