The next move f the school board in connection wth improvements will doubtlessly B the building of a new school houp for the Christian Lane district wich will contain ele- mentary gradesfor children of that district.

As the 1fht and air requirements of schoo’ children in the class rooms mustbe strictly adhered to to in- sure tealthy conditions, the present crowled rooms and temporary struc- tures are not advantagcous to local stugnts. Tt is thought that unless gony structure is raised in the near futwe for the ] >using of the surplus chifiren, a part time schedule might be necessary. As this system has bea found unsatisfactory, local res- jdmts are not favorable to the idea anl think that the time for a new ac100l in the Christian Lane district his arrived.
