If the Bureau proper is to be discontinued the 1st of Nov. who will superintend the erection of our school building & expend the appropriation therefor? On ceasing to be Sub Asst. Commr. I should be glad to resume teaching again as I was engaged last year  in that case I might serve the Educational Dept. of the Bureau in superintending the building of the School house.
