Honorable Sirs:
With the approach of completion of
new quarters for the present No. l de-
partment and the resultant vacancy of
the present downtown fire station,
members Of the Recreation Commits
sion most respectfully request that it
re allowed use Of at least portion of
the building for its handicraft work.
Handicraft classes have been con-
Quoted for the past 10 weeks as q part
Of the yearly recreational program. Re-
port Of the instructor at the last regu-
lar meeting of the Commission disclOs-
ed that a total of 40J have received in
SiructiOn. This number has not only
learned valuable lesson in handicraft
which will make them better citizens
but products they have turned out will
be used as Christmas gifts for the I'M
fortunate boys and girls of the City at
Christmas time.
Tools and equipment in the amount
Of $1,000 were purchased for this
handicraft program and in one project
sufficient articles were made which
are used in another project of the Re
creation Commission TO more than off
set this cost
With only II boys at the first meet
ing of the handicraft class, the number
las constantly increased until now
more than ~ are given instruction
each week and that is capacity for the
present quarters.
Should your Honorable Body grant
Us the privilege of using at least pOr-
ton of the present No. l fire station
after removal of that department to
its new quarters, the valuable handi-
craft program could be increased quite
considerably.
Knowing that you will give this re-
quest StudiOus and courteous consider
alton as you have all requests which
we have made of your Honorable Body
we are,
Very sincerely yours,
