ing that an election be called for the
purpose of authorizing the board to
contract a bonded Indebtedness in the
sum'of $20,000 for the purpose of pur
chasing additional land needed by the
district. It has been deemed necessary
to obtain the grounds now owned and
occupied by Dallas College and La
Creole Academy, which are conven
iently situated and well adapted to be
made use of as playgrounds, etc., in
connection with the High School.
Although the petition has been circu
lated but a short time, a large number
of names have been- placed upon It.
In event that the property is pur
chased from the College trustees, it Is
the intention of the latter to take over
sightly tract upon which they have an
option. The land is well situated for
a college campus, and modern and sub
stantial buildings, worthy of the loca
tion, will be built as fast as possible.
The plan adopted is broad and anti
cipates the the expansion of the school
for many years to come. The grounds
are to be laid out in an artistic manner
and the skill of the landscape gardener
will be called forth In making it one
of the most beautiful college sites in
the whole state.
