Increased accommodation will enable the pre- sent staff to do better work. How Much Will the Enlargement Cost?_ _ . The proposed addition to the Colle iate will take a yearly debenture and interest payment of $3,578, 0 which the `County will pay $900. _ Increased Government grants owing to improved ac.~.onimodati_on would amount to about `$300 yearly, eaving the amount to be raised annually by the Town about $2.400. How Will it Affect the Taxes? . . _ .. V $2.400 yearly. will amount to 4/7 mill or 57 cents on each $1.000 of assessment. In other words. theyearly` increase in taxes to the pro- perty owner who is now payinig.$100 a year in taxes would be about $1.40, but. for three `years only. as incre_`a.=ed Government grants on salaries after three years successfulnneration of the `Commercial course would more than take care of the annual debenture and in- terest payments. What Will be -the Result if By-law is Defeated? The Board will be compelled to furnish temporary` accommodation to relieve the overcrowding, which will mean the spending` of consider- able money for something which will haveto be scrapped later. The architect s fees for preliminary work and the expense of taking` the vote will have to be paid out of the `year's levy and Government grants for accommodation will be lost. the whole amounting to pos- sibly as `much as the yearly debenture for the addition would cost. `nu cunn 9.

What are the Prospects for Future Attendance ? Attendance in Entrance and other classes of Barrie Public Schools . assures there will be no falling o` in local attend-ance at the Collegi-_ ate, and the opening of Continuation Schools in the district has not resulted in any material reduction in the number of County pupils attending. Any `falling off in attendance in the lower forms on ac- count of Continuation Schools has been balanced by increased at- tendance in the higher forms. Why Accommodate Out-of-town Students? Because every out-of-town student is an asset to Barrie. Besides the money spent for board, and trading done in `Bax-ri e,by the parents of the students, the County pays for 'County pupils 100% of the main- tenance and 80% of'the buildin-g van=d1 debenture cost. The out- of-town pupils number about one-third of the total attendance. Last year's grant from the County was nearly $20,000. If these students attended other high schools `Barrie would be taxed to help pay for their maintenance at these schools. is an Enlarged Assembly Hall Needed? The present Assembly Hall will not begin to accommodate the stud- ents of the Collegiate at one time. its seating capacity being only b 375. consequently when open meetings are held there is undue crowd`- ing, and in the interest of common safetv alone the enlargement is i needed. `The enlargement of the Assembly Hall will also allow for badly needed improvements to the gymnasium underneath. y Establish a Commercial Course?" `D nnnnn an Han nun-4-`a.aainnm own 7|-Vxnnnnruincr nvn1vn1vnu.vt1n(i and i'i`\n nefa'nlil'\.- Residents of Burton Avenue phoned the police that a man on their streetwas driving` a car all over the road.?.

A taxi, driv- en by J. `W. .Deva1l, was standing on the street waiting for a fare and it is thought that the boy ran up close behind it, thinking it was ! eoing ahead. Instead of that it: backed up, knocking the child down and severelv {bruising himi around the shoulders and on one. side. He was bleeding from the` mouth when picked un and died` soon after reaching the hospital. The driver did "not know he -had hit the boy and` drove away to Chemong.

I .n-L. 1,-Lu, _'1, 9.1 7 Efforts of the milk producers and distributors of Barrie during! the past week to agree on the su1n- : mer price of milk have proven un-l successful and today the two fac-3 tions are deadlocked. The produc-' ers were in session until nearly 11 o'clock last night and unanimous-I ly decided not to accept less than 5 cents perquart at the farm or 5?: cents delivered to the dairies. The distributors are offering 4 and 5 cents respectively and renewed this offer as nal last evening. Both parties the date their neW`prices would go into effect as June 1. the date on which the price to the consumer is reduced from 12 to 11 cents a quart. Asked as to what the situationi would be tomorrow. Secretary Fred 'Nelles `of the Milk Producers Association said at the conclusion of the meeting that the members of his association were unanimous in their decision. There need be no milk shortage, as far as we are concerned. he said. Themilk is available, but at `our price. namely 5 cents at the farm and 51: cents delivered at the dairy. We are no- tifying the distributors to that ef- fect. _ ..... .. -L auuuvvsu N Mr. Nelles said action had been 1 taken after_ consideration of all phases of the situation. The.dairy- men of the district are agreed that a price of less than they ask would be decidedly unprotable and are prepared to go out of the whole-I sale milk business rather than ac-' cent the unremunerative price as- offered by the two largest distribu- tors.
