ipulation of Manual Trainer Johnson
have been sand pa|>ered and revar-
nished until they appear new. Each
room has a cloak closet, with ventil-
ating devices, and umbrella raeks,
and othei conveniences. The vacuum
steam heating system will be used to
heat the rooms. The blackboards are
of slate and will last indefinitely.
Cork strips appear above the black
boards, giving space for displaying
the work of the students. Each re
citation room has enclosed shelves
und drawers for teachers’ supplies.
On the south side of the buildii g. and
almost midway, is a library room,
which is well lighted and inviting.
Toilets alt situated at each end of
the hall, and will be sanitary. The
girl’s playground is on the south side
of the building, and that of the boy’s
is on the west side of the boiler room.
The sideroom adjoining the play
ground in each instance is heated for
the early comers of both sexes.
The boiler, which is located on the
west side of the school, is separated
from the main building and is heavily
concreted, making the tire huzard ex
tremely light. A kitchenette is also
on the south side of the building,
with a swinging table, upon which
will be placed the two« or chocolate
hot drinks or the hot soup, which is
issued to scholars who bring cold
lunches. The idea is in the interest
of hygiene, which teaches that child
ren should have something warm to
eat or drink at the noon hour. These
light foods will lie served from the
kitchenette. Two large rooms in the
northwest part of the building can.
by the arrangement made, be thrown
into one large room, large enough to
accommodate two hundred persons.
The building is surmounted with a
tile roof, and the last eoat of paint on
the outside of the building will be a
terra-cotta to harmonize with the col
or of the roof tile.
A flag pole. fi4 feet in height will
lie erected near the main entrance,
from which "Old Glory” will daily
kiss the morning breeze. Everything
in hardware on the outside of the
building win be of copper, which does
not rust. The contractor states thut
the Liberty school will constitute the
largest copper job in the state.
Every door in the school will be fitted
with a check oil valve. The windows
are of plate glass. All the rooms in
