Before reading the report of the High School InSpector, Toronto, on the Lindsay Collegiate Institute, Mr. Stewart explained that while the report was a very favorable one in many ways the drift of it in one res» pect could not be ignored. The re. port opened up the question of a<> commodation at the Collegiate Insti- tute and this in turn called up the whole question of school accommoda- tion in the Town of Lindsay. The Board and the people of the town were undoubtedly face to face with the largest problem in the history of ed- ucation in Lindsay for such the ques- tion of school accommodation was at the present time. “Whatever we do The report. of the Inspector was then read. A full resume of this re- port will be found in this issue 01 Afterthe report hadbeenreadin full,itwastakenupbycluuesmd_u greai deal of diicuuion resulted. most of which centred mnndr the very important. question of school' ac- commodation .

Whatever we do, and no matter how much we consider economy, let us do what we The Agricultural Classes. A communication was read from the Deputy-Minister of Agriculture, call- ing the attention of the Board to the fact that the grant from the Ontario Government for the agricultural work in connection with the L. C. I. was a special grant and must be used for no other purpose whatever. The 81200 must be entirely expended for the work of the classes ,and it was also specified that the specialist in agriculture here be paid not less than $1200 a year. "Mr. Stewart said he did not know what had called for this letter. 50 fas as he was aware the Board had thoroughly understood the whole mat- ter in this way, and there had been no intention, so far as he knew, of making any change. all, without the Board being given any notice in the matter. In fact the affair was carried on irrespective of the Board. “I am not complain- In introducing the business for which the meeting had been called, Mr. Stewart thanked the members for the large attendance at this special meeting. Every member of the Board was present except Mr. D. R. Ander- son, whose absence was unavoidable and much regretted by all. Mr. Stew. art thanked the Board for again plac- Mr. Stewart felt, however, that it would not be amiss for the committee who had the supervision of those cl_as- ses to considerâ€"the matter of putting the whole conduct of. the agricultural classes on a diflerent footing. At least it would be well to find out just where the Board stood on the matter. Mr. Reed, the last teacher in agricul- ture here, had not made any resigna- tion to the Board, and his successor had been appointed, if appointed at ing him in the position of chairman. Sometimes, he confessed, he felt like wishing that he could escape the res- ponsbilities such a position brought, but at the same time he knew the spi- rit which promoted the appointment, and he would always do the best he could in the best interests of the schools. The meeting, Mr. Stewart explained, was called for the special purpose of considering the report of the Inspec- tor on the Collegiate. This report opened up a wide field that must be faced. There were also some other matters that would be before the meeting. New School Buildings are Badly Needed in Lindsay The Board of Education held a spe- cial meeting, with Mr. Thomas Stew- art, chairman, presiding, and Messrs. J. Carew, J. D. Flavelle, A. Jackson. J. W. Anderson, J. G. Edwards, Joe. Staples, R. M. Knowlson, J. E. Ad- ams, Neil Gray, and Dr. Blanchard and Dr. White present. Mr. T. A.

Guy and Knowleon were Mr. Flavelle thought Mr. Staples looked at the question wrongly. It was not so much a ,matter of money as it was that the children should be properly and decently accommodat- ed. The children were the town's greatest asset and Mr. Flavelle thought it a great mistake to trim and shave and skimp in matters that con- cerned the health and welfare of the youngsters. The Board should feel itself in duty bound to give proper ac- commodation to the school children He was not set upon any particular plan, but he felt that the question was so important and so pressing as to de- mand immediate attention in justice to the health and welfare of the chil- dren. Mr .Flavelle suggested that a skilled architect be consulted in the matter. It would pay the Board and the people to get the views of an ex- perienced man. whether enlargement or new buildings were decided on. Al- f‘u " Dr. Blanchard thought the subject averylargeone. Hedidnotknow whether it would be wise to change the location of the L.(_3.I. fie _nthec first. He thought, too, that the ant. ter of a new school or schools, or even of additions, might be held 01! for a Mr. Anderson thought that it was foolish to attempt additions to the old buildings on which so much money had already been- spent without achieving proper conditions. Mr. Carew thought Mr. Flavelle'a suggestion a good “one. He saw little use in tinkering awav with tho- old buildings. Whateuer was done should be d9ne right. Mr. Carew al- so condemned strongly the unsanitary so also to be inadequate, was a good time to take the matter up and do things right. Dr. White agreed with this View. Mr. Stewart questioned if the class rooms in the Collegiate would be large enough for Public school classes. Mr. Carew thought the best way would be for the Board to visit the schools in a body, and then they could intelligently discuss the matter, There was certainly not enough ac- commodation in the Collegiate and the needs were growing. The Public schools were also lacking in accom- modation. Inspector Knight suggested an eight» roomed building {or the north ward for school purposes. There were two rooms in one of the Public schools that positively should be chundoncd as soon as possible. Mr. Knight also argued in favor of having four en- trance classes in town, the present ac. commodation preventing this. Mr. étaples agreed with Mr. Carew that the schools should be visited Mr. Jackson thought Mr. Ander- son‘s suggestion worthy of considera- tion. It was certain that one school building would have to so soon. Mr. Carewâ€"“To my mind the ques- tion of accommodation in the Collegi- ate simply resolves itself into the fact that we must either build a new'build- ing or add a wing to the present structure.” Dr. Whiteâ€"“I am afraid it would be very dificult to add to the present building and still maintain proper conditions in light, ventilaton and appearance. Mr. J. W. Anderson briefly but ably stated his position. He felt that something must be done to provide ac- commodation in both the Collegiate and Public schools. Present condi- tions were bad and could not be con- tinued. His suggestion was that the Collegiate be turned into a Central school and that a new Collegiate be built. The lack of accommodation in the Public schools was very noticeable and now that the Collegiate was prov- years ago when it was built, but it! accommodation was not adequate now. The lower forms were in a- chronic condition of overcrowding 1f the highest eficiency was to be maintain- ed the building and equipment must be kept adequate for the growing had been: Mr. J. D.

Mr. Carew: Mr. Anderson and oth- er members spoke strongly against the unsanitary state of aflairs at these schools. The letter was laid over un- til the regular meeting. To Visit the Schools. After more discussion it was decid- ed to visit the north ward schools and the Colleaate and inspect the prem- ises and schools with a view to de- ciding what best- to do in regard to better school accommodation.
