built about four years ago. It is of pressed brick and stone. Owing to lack of funds, some of the rooms have never been finished. The school board has called a special election for the 22nd of June for the purpose of raising the necessary funds to complete these rooms and to make repairs in the high school building. When this building is completed it will be one of the finest ward buildings in the state.

At the time the West Ward building was erected it was believed that it would be years before all of the building would be needed. Last year five teachers were added and in order to relieve the crowded condition in some of the rooms more will be needed this vear. Every room can be used as soon as completed and the large number of new homes being built on the north side of the tracks will call for a new

the East Ward as far as the seventh grade. The eight grade children go to the beautiful new West Ward building and the room once occupied by them in the high school building has been converted into a fine chemical and physics laboratory. Within the past year normal training, which has proved so popular in Nebraska because of the excellent training it gives. *o the high school graduate who is going out t teach in the country schools, has been a regular feature of the high school course. Almost all of the class of 1915 received certificates the night they graduated.
