One of the aerloua problems that will
have to be solved before the, school Is
opened Is tha improvement of Eaat Stark
atreet from Klnth to Thirteenth street.
This street will carry a great part ot
the attendance from the central dis
tricts and if left in its present condi
tion will be th one blot in surroundings
otherwise In keeping with the new
building. For four or five blocks Eaat
Stark atreet is a alough and was once
bridged by an elevated roadway, but this
waa year ago, and not In recent times
has the atreet been open to traffic, the
rotting roadway being left to fall to
piece. Garbage men have used the
alough a a dumping ground and from
under the old roadway come emella.
Though -tha roadway la practically, a
ruin. It is atlll open to foot passengers,
who pick -their way arroes the sagging
walka dodging th weak places.
RUSH AT STATION A.

Wit -work, but Mot Wit Clerks.
For several weeks postal station A
haa been overburdened with work and
only during the laat few day have the
clerks commenced to catch up with th
accumulated business. An extra clerk
was placed at thla office during the
holiday rush and kept there until late
In January, when the special appropria
tion gave but. In the meantime th
increase in work had been so great that
th additional dark was neceesary,. and
when, be was removed Poatmaater Hal-
vor and hla assistant found there wr
more thing to do than there were hour
in the day to do them In. For several
weeks the office force worked 1 and
more hour each day with no time for
lunch, and even then the routine work
waa shoved aside and th monthly re
ports and almllar matters of less mo
ment were forgotten.
When the general city office secured
eight additional clerks laat week the
eaat side station waa given a man, and
commencing yesterday th tangle in th
atlbatation began to be straightened out
Bualneaa at thla atatlon haa Increased
rapidly and steadily alnce th office was
opened laat summer, . and today It la
the chief postal station in th city, aside
from the main office an the west side.
The' carrier force reporting at station
A Is being overworked and several of
th men are making only a delivery and
a half, because their territory haa been
aettled up ao rapidly with new patron.
When the annual report of th atatlon
I made it is believed that a showing
will be made sufficient to Justify the
Increase of the carrier force and to give
the .business district tributary to th
office another delivery each day. ,

At least two new stations ar to b
