SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Twentieth Ward Has a Site far a School
and It Is Sadly in Need of a
New Building.
School Controller John Gibbons, of the
Twentieth ward, purchased two lots at
ine corner or stone avenue ami moo i
ttreu. whin he was on the board nine j
years ago. his puipose that time being i
that It was a wise plan to secure a de- ;
siralde location for a Fchi.ol when there !
was plenty of land to be bad and to j
bold it In reserve until the time came j
when the development of the South aide
would make more school facilities nec- i
essary. How well his judgment was, is
now apparent. I
The Twentieth ward nine or ten years
ago was far from what it is today, but i
Mr. Gibbons foresaw that the day
would come when the large area of un
occupied land would teem with houses.
If these lots were not now in possession j
of the board of control it would lie a ;
difficult matter to secure a desirable,;
site without a large outlay of money. :
The next thing Is to get a new school ,
for the ward. Mr. Gibbons bus the ca- j
pacity of undertaking whatever he i
atari nut to accomplish and he w.ll, i
no doubt, accomplish this much for the I
ward before hid term expires.
