having a really fine high school building in georgetown which would include a gymnasiumauditorium not that the otd building was completely without charm once you got used to it we who attended the old ghs have lots of happy mem ories in spite of the poor facili ties and shabbiness ot ing and its those happy memor ies which make most of us feel a pang of nostalgia at the thought of the old school building being erased forever we thought the present student council at the school displayed fine sensitivity as well as a feeling for the impor tance of local history when they commissioned artist frank c black 80 guclph street to paint a picture of the old school build ing this fine painting which will be hung in the new school was formally presented to the school board at commencement now so outworn out moded and outgrown we have to stretch our imagin ations a bit to remember there was a time when the old building farm news institutes provide personnel for farm accident survey j a f the

description seems to me a very good way of preserving a word picture of the old high school here it is there are four or five large windows in each room these give sufficient light while there are coldair registers which are used for ventilation in the basement of the school there is a large furnace which heats the hot water which is carried through the school in medium sized pipes this is how the school is healed the desks are peculiar they fold up and the books arc kept crtical by a board attached to the seat ahead the walls and ceil ngs of each room are painted with a kind of border
