New Buildings
Every public building in the Virgin. Is
lands has had repairs. and some have
had extensive improve ments. Two beash
houses have been built for the recreation
OF the people, Twelve school-hOuSes
have had extensive repairs, and four
new school houses have been built.
In St. Croix, general repairs have
been made TO Government House; a new
bu Iding has been erected for the Junior
High school in ,Christiansted; besides.
a manual framing and Home Economies
building has been added to the school
in Christiansted. and similar one in
Freteriksted. An entire new building
hastbeen erected for Diamond School.
While talking about school buildings
should like to remind you how mucn
the schools have improved Inside
the buildings. Some of the most per-
manent benefits for the islands can
come only through education; it is sure
ly worthwhile then to give increasing
attention 10 our school system. Expen-
ditures for education have increased
6OM over 1881.
A program of adult education was
carried on with co siderable success at
the clt Sc of 1888 and early this year.

Indifferent rounds against four spar

over he did Dempsey a full three
weeks better
IF that's the best Baer can do"
Brown said, then he shouldn't be
permitted to fight at all. He is not
ready for championship match and
the public should know that and be
protected. He needs another full
month of hard work, either that or
the fight should be called off en-
tirely."
The howls of the injured could be
heard for blocks Baer insisted he
was in great shape and his manager,
Hancn Hoffman, said If there was a
months postponement there'd be no
fight at all.

convince his two associates on

White haired, militant veteran of
80 years in the boxing business, Brown
says the challenger is in no shape for
the test, that the bout should be post
poned at least a month, that perhaps
it would be best to call it off entirely.
