  All in the meeting agreed that we must have schools. Mr. Waranka spoke on education and the benefit of it; that a man without education is lost.

  Also Mr. Masionis spoke about the poor and downtrodden.

  Then all the members of the society decided to establish a Lithuanian school at the hall of Mr. Kowalski, Noble and Milwaukee Avenue, and the other school at 713 Van Horn St. The teachers will be J. Grinius, P. Braczulis, M. Waranka and J. Kriszcziukaitis. The school will be twice a week at Kowalski's on Monday and Friday, at 713 Van Horn St., on Wednesday and Saturday.
