BOARD CHOOSES
SITE OF SCHOOL
OFIOTERCE
Be Located on Thirtieth
Between Cuming and Burt
Streets; Plans Call for
Up-to-date Building.
The site, from Cuming to Burt
and from Thirtieth to within a halt
block of Thirty-third street, has
been decided upon by the Board of
Education as the location of the new
High School of Commerce soon to
be erected. Negotiations for its
tmrchase are now pending and offi
cials of the Board of Education plan
to begin the preliminary work of
grading the eight acres in the near
future. Before construction can be
gin several houses, will have to be
moved.
A million dollars will be expend'
ed in the construction of the new
institution. The bonds were voted
about a vear aeo but the govern
ment would not permit their sale at
that time on account of the war. The
bonds have been recently bought by
a Boston firm with the permission
ot the government.
The place is easily accessible to
all parts of Ornaha. It can be
reached by any street railway line
in the city. This is one of its prin'
cipal advantages, according to' mem
bers of the board.
The majority of the 1,400 pupils
attending the High school of Com
merce reside north of Cuming
street. The location will thus be
convenient to the greater portion
of the students, stated the secretary.
Plenty of Koom.
The place is large enough to ac
commodate the enlarged and mod
ern high school which is being
planned. The site purchased at
Twenty-second and Chicago street!
a few years ago has proven too
small for the rapidly growing insti
tution. It is planned to utilize the
Chicago street lot tor the erection
of a junior high school to be com
posed of Seventh, Eighth and Ninth
grade students. This will relieve
the crowded conditions In both our
public and high schools.
The new High School of Com
merce will be one of the most mod
ern and best equipped in the coun
try. It is planned to make it a
technical as well as a commercial
high school. Shops for the teach
ing of trade's and facilities for teach
ing of home economics, mechanics
printing, carpentry, journalism and
many other trades and professions
will be installed.
The buildings on Leavenworth
street, which compose the present
High School of Commerce, will be
condemned and torn down. Only
the annexes, recently constructed to
accommodate the overflow oi pu
pits, will be transferred to the new
site.
Well Known Musician Pays
Frances Alda Compliment
One of the many remarkable trib
utes tendered to Mine, I' ranees
Alda, the gifted soprano who will
be heard in recital at the Auditor
ium Friday evening, March 7, as the
third number of the "All-Star" con
cert course, is from a musician
whose name is well known the
country over.
In his comment he said: I have
heard every singer worth hearing In
the last 20 years but never do I re
call so beautifully rounded a crea
tion that Mine. Alda provided m her
Roxane, which she made vocally su
perb, visuably delightful, and dramat
ically convincing in every way inai
is expected of one so extraordinarily
gifted and sincere."
Mme. Alda m song recital compels
the admiration of the sort gained by
only one or two other singers before
the public.
' Seats now on sale at the Auditor
ium box office.
