Your girls in using the. toilet in Qaincy school are not secure in any privacy whatever. A friend the Herald has paid 20, four months suits with the -quest that they he placed where icy will be appreciated.

In order to speak with some authority on this point, the editor of the Herald has made a rough survey of this part of the line and the Herald presents the result of the survey in an approximate estimate of cost.

For fully 300 ft. south from Warren street a splendid roadway is now a fact. Another hundred feet of light work carries the roadway to the embankment of the Stubbs lake.

As a toilet it is the counterpart of the girls in all essentials.
