Manual training petition urged for Frederick county schools
A petition to the Board of County School Commissioners seeks a Frederick county manual training school as part of the public system. It notes a 1898 state act mandating a 1500 annual warrant to county boards for such schools, provided space is supplied locally. The plan uses the North Market Street building room with state funds to cover initial costs, then about 600 yearly thereafter. Albert Signogle says no county cost, and State Superintendent Bates Stephens supports the move.
