J. li. Parrlsh epoch in the growth of the educa tional facilities of Salem. For years Salem, with her eight ele mentary and four secondary Rchobs, has held an enviable po sition as an educational center. Now with the improvements lately made on the . senior, high school, and the erection of a new junior high school, this position has been made even more secure. . Magnificent New Building Some time ago the growth of the city, together with unsafe con- 'ditions of one or two of the Junior high' schools, made necessary 1 the consideration of the erection of a new Junior high' school. Less than a year ago a site was chosen for the new school on North Cap itol 'street, and by the opening date of the present school year the building was ; ready Idr'occO- . pancy. It is a beautiful work of architecture - in Idaho . sandstone. The building is two stories high, and has 38 class rooms and a fine auditorium. . . ' . jRev,J. I.
