' !' ygJgJJJitAwejjUjsjKJtafcj i - EXPECTS INCREASED SCHOOL ATTENDANCE Board of Education to Make Ar rangements for Accommodat ing 30,000 More Pupils, TO BE READY FOR THE FAIR. Soldan Will Becommend the Erec tion of Portable Buildings Additional High Schools May Be Provided. At its Oc -er meeting the Board of Ed ucation trill make preparations for caring for tho Increased attendance at the city schools to be brought about by the World's Fair. Superintendent Soldan estimates this Increase at nearly 20.00J pupils. 'An Increase of 20,000 In our schools," said Superintendent Soldan ycEtcrday, "would mean an increase In the cltj's pop ulation ef 1M.000 Inhabitants. We usually figure one pupil to eight persons In a family. "I shall recommend to the Board of ed ucation that portable buildings be erectedi for the accommodation of this increased attendance. It Is necessary to take up the matter-at' once in order to have them ready. "My reason for recommending portable structures Is that the board Is not prepared to erect enough permanent buildings to pro vide room for tho World's Fair Increase. It would cost more than Jl,0CO,O00 to erect suit able permanent houses. Then after the Fair we would have them in locations where they would not be wanted. "We can erect a portable building for 1700, which is light, airy and weU ventilated. Bach room will comfortably seat fifty chil dren. They may be erected on leased ground at small cost to the board, and after the Fair, If wc so desire, they may be sold to the owner of the land at a price which will Insure no loss." Superintendent Soldan alio stated he be lieved the Board of Education will take up the Question of erecting high-school build ings in North and South St. Louis. He re gards them as necessary. The Committee on Sites has already Investigated the mat ter so far as their part of the transaction goes, and about twenty-five different loca tions have been submitted to them. "I re gard the question of caring for the in creased attendance at our schools In the time of the World's Fair of sreater im portance, and it will be the chief problem for the board to solve at its October meet ing." said Mr. Soldan. The board will meet in regular session next Tuesday night. The transfers and ap pointments of teachers will be approved at the meeting. The reports to the Super intendent show that tho schools have begun the term excellently. So far no objections have come from parents who do not want their children vaccinated, and the teachers report that many of their pupils have gone to the dispensaries and their family phy sicians to submit to tho operation.
