Board of Education Expected to Reach Decision at Next _ Meeting an announcement regarding the site of the proposed eight roomed school to be bullt in the south east ward will probably be made the next meeting of th Board of Education This site will cover four acres and has dimensions of roughly 600 by 400 feet, It is on the west side of Ritson Road South but further information is not avail able. The lots to be purchased are owned by people living in Oshawa, Toronto, England and elsewhere, The Board is now negotiating with them, Those on the hoard who favor vigorous action in the erection of the new school state that if work Is commenced on August 1 that the school will be ready to open on Nov- ember 1, Some of the members of the board do not favor purchasing four acres but rather favor a two acre site or at the utmost two and at) White Hose for Children A fipe 1/1 rib Cotton Hose with a good appearance and will stand lots of hard wear, All sizes 6-10, a half acres. It is pointed out by the others, however, that room ix needed for large playgrounds as | over 800 children live in the South East Ward alone, while a four acre! site will provide plenty of space on which to build an addition, if it should ever be necessary to construct a sixteen room school bullding. It Is also the Intention of some mem- bers of the Board to advise the erec- tion of a home for the janitor on the same site upon which the school will stand. The south east section of the town, at the present time, has a large school population but the vacant land still in that section of Oshawa! would make it possible to triple the! school attendance of that neighbor- | |hood once the district is compactly | built up. Olive Avenue alone at the present time, has 38 children © of school age. When this school is erected it will be practically the only one in Osh-| awa which is not close to the busi-| ness section of the town. The new! school however will be In a residen- | tial section entirely. | At the next meeting the ten-| ders for repair work in the Oshawa | public schools and the high school] will be dealt with, as well as the! site of the new school. The appoint- ment of teachers to take the places of those leaving this year will pro- bably engage the attention of the Board at some later date. | Slight Increase in Number Books Read Circulation figures of the Oshawa | Public Library, while showing al slight increase over those of May, are | nevertheless lower than the figures| for the month of April. In June 2,277 books were taken from the library, while in May only 2,229 library books were read. In April the figures stood at 3,005. The de-| cres in May is accounted for by the fact that the women patrons of the! library were busy housecleaning while most of the men folk were no doubt gardening. The June figures are the first for the summer months, | when the circulation of mearly all| libraries is small. J In the figures for the month of; June, fiction, in both the adult and Juvenile division of the library, far outnumbered the classified books. The figures for June are:-- Fiction Class Total | 1,497 187 1,684 56 593 | 2,034 243 2.2717 New reader--Adults, 31; Juaior, 2: Total, 33. a In Local Churches Numerous outs Junior speakers al the evening service.
