$4,000 Project Proposed.

Another buildings and grounds prof.
ect for the public schools calls for an
appropriation of $4,000. The Buchan-
an School Is 16-room building lack
ing the usual combination gymnasium
and assembly hall. The enrolment in
this and adjoining schools is such as to
make necessary the early construction
at the Buchanan School of four addi-
uonal classroomS. The purpose of this
estimate is to secure an economical con-
Struction program by combining the ad-
ditional classroom construction with the
construction OF a gymnasium and as
Sembly hall
Another project in school building
| and playground sites calls for an APP
preparation of 100000. The purpose
| OF this estimate is to provide land for
the construction of junior high school
in the Northeast section of Washington.
When the five year school-building pro-
gram was submitted, it was thought
| that junior high school facilities for
colored pupils in Northeast Washington
might be provided through extension
OF the facilities at the Lovejoy School.
However, the situation has changed SO
materially with regard to the number
OF pupils OF junior high school claSsif1-
| cation in Northeast Washington that
|
separate and distinct junior high school
building be constructed to accommodate
children of Junior high school age in
that section.
Still another school building and
playground sites project calls for an ap-
preparation of $4,000 to enable the
Commissioners to purchase parcels OF
land in narrow wedge-shaped striu
between the present athletic field and
the alley back of r street northeast
This alley is the natural boundary OF
the Mckinley High School athletic field
and will be a necessary thoroughfare
to and from the grounds, and the in
tervening strip should, therefore, be a
part of the field.
For salaries for the District Supreme
Court, $4,000 is provided This is tc
pay the salary during the fiscal year
1880 of the additional justice, whose
appointment was authorized by the ACT
of December 20 last.
$150,0O0 for Nurses Home.
For Gallinger Municipal Hospital
$l50,000 is included to enable the Com.
missioners to begin construction of g
new nurses home. The nurses at pres.
ent are quartered in an old asylum
building that is declared inadequate ir
size and lacking in necessary facilities
and accommodations. The opening Of
the new hospital building and the In.

And is almost impossible to sleep
upon.
Thus it is waning in popularity
just a few months after its vogue

William H. Wilson, vice-president of
the American Furniture Mart, told
the United Press today.
When Wilson made this pro-
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-09-05

The time has come when we must
speak plainly. The Public is being
persistently told that we can not sell
1902 Pure Pennsylvania Oil at our
advertised prices. If these were iso-
lated cases we would let it pass. But
we have too much at stake here to
submit tamely to widespread propa-
ganda. And so this is our answer.
The State and Federal laws both
have sharp teeth, and carry severe
penalties against swindling. We are
advertising 1907 Pure Pennsylvania
Oil, and selling it at the rate of 1OO,-
900 gallons per year. Interested peo-
pie are constantly buying our oil and
submitting it to extreme laboratory
tests. They do no tell you what they
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-09-05

find. We will tell you. They find it to
be exactly what we say it is. If it
were otherwise we would be hailed
into court.
We buy our oil from a Rehner who
manufactures probably the best
known and most widely used brand
of 1902 Pure Pennsylvania Oil in the
world. Their financial responsibility
runs into the millions. Both of our
stations have direct rail switches
where we receive tank cars of Gas,
Oil, Naphtha, Coal and Alcohol. We
sell these products direct to the
user. This saves the middle profit
for our customers. It is a consider
able saving.
