A son o! the late Mr. and Mi':. Wesley Wright, h. was born near Enterprise and in early years he farmed nean Lifford and juter ut a farm close ta, Bethany. Some years ago he retired ta live in tue village and became an insura'nce agent. Mr'. Wright will be greatly mnissed bY a wide circle o! friends and relatives.

Further A ccom odation. iveecieci ar Lrono (Fromn The Onono Time:) The. Durham District High School Board -on Thursdsy of lait week voted on two amendments and a motion which were designed to start the. building of two achools for the. district, placed ln varlous location: ln the district. Ail three went down ta defeat leaving the question o! pi'oviding needed accommoda- tion îtiflln hieicair., It was apparent from the voting that Uic Board wa: not ready for a motion to choose a site Cher than the one which they chose a year àgai Orono. As a result of the meeting the chair- mian has been authorlzed to appoint another site committee made Up o! one member from each municipality. The committee Is to be further augmented by Uic Inspectons of both -the publlc and high schools. The cornnittee Io to restudy the problem and the figures.' lnortunately, the delay in building the. new school ta provide accommodation la going to affect the. students thnough oveitcrowding which la evident thus year and will b. much worse next yean. Aiso unfortunate i: the fact that the problem created is ane whlch la flot the maklng of the High School Board but nather the Municipal Councils. The Orono school Is presently overcrowded, bath ln the elementary and :econdary level. The Public School must have a further noom this comlng yeur and thus means the loss of one roomn for the lgh School whlch could even now use more space rather thun lose some. It ha: been rumored that the High School may take the two top grades fnom Orono and bus them ta Bowmanville. Such a scheme seema flot feasible since already the Bowmanville school Is awuy overcnowded and it la wondered where the students cari be put thus comlng year. Funther, the taking of two grades from Orono leaves ln Orono only two grades. This would only b. the first move ln closing the Orono High Schooi completeiy. It would increase thie burden on a decreased staff and would be most difficult ta provide a proper curriculum and course o! study. The coît ta the Board, considering furtiier transportation and a rismng per pupil cost, would flot be sound business. As a muatter o! fact the Orono School should b. increasing its grades rather than decreasing for in the term o! 1959 the. school could have a grade thîrteen o! at least eighteen students. Presently, grade thirteen is taught i Bowmanville. There seems only one solution and that is thq erection o! a portable classroom, or even two, in Orono. This would supply the needed accommodation at Orono. The project ls the responsi- bility o! the Hlgh School. Let us not have the students studying in overcrowded classrooms, and under adverse conditions. Rather, thei'e should b. adequate accommodations, facilities and oppor- tunity for oui' young students.
