An additional appropriation of $l0A was approved last evening at special meeting of the voters of the sixth school district toward building fund which now amounts to $50,Ouo. Between forty-two and forty-live thousand of this amount will be expended for the four-room brick schoolhousc, while the rest will cover the expenses involved in connection with the purchase of the new site at the corner of Farming ton avenue and Hoardman streets and the architects fees
 Although plans prepared by Harold A. Hayden, local architect, were not approved last night, the matter was left in the hands of building committee consisting of J. C. Griffin, Carl T. Mahannah and Eugene Marchand with power 10 advertise for bids and award the contract. MT Mahannah stated to- day that bids would be solicited within tho next week or 10 days and that work on the new building would be started during the latter part of September. Under such an ar engagement, it is probable that the new building will be ready for oc- cupancy carly in January Of next year
 With the completion of the new building, which will be modern in every respect and will be so con- struct"d as to permit of additional rooms being added in later years adequate facilities will be afforded the school children in what is recognized as one of the fastest growing sections of the city. Dur ing the past several years several new tracts have been opened and many new homes erected. The site cn which the now building is to be located is in the heart of the dis triCt and is large enough to pro- vide adequate room for future eX- pdrsiOn.
 At last Tuesdays meeting of the city conncil, a petition was pre- scented by residents of Pennington AvonUe and adjoining streets asking that sidewalks be constructed along Farmngton avenue from the top of Tom Martins hilh to Brock street. These improvements would mini mlze the danger to school children on their way to and from school and it is probable that tho street committee will report favorably on , the request at the next meeting of the city council.
