The soot is getting into the coldyair chamber and is be- ' ing blown into the rooms until the T walls, desks and floors are becoming thickly coated. This is owing to a ; serious defect in the chimney"which should be attended to at once. While . it does not seem probable that fire would originate from around, the fur- nace, if it should do so the children upstairs would have no other escape than to march over a floor burning right at the foot of the stairs and! in front of the doors of two classrooms of small children. If thought neces- sary protect the joists or ooring. 'In the primary room of this ;school there are 67 children enrolled, made up of Parts I. and II. The latter, 21 pupils, attend all day; 3rd class (highest in `-Part L), 19 pupils, are out during afternoon; 2nd class, 17 pupils, are out during forenoon; and Ist class attend from 9 to 10.30 and from 1.30 to 2.30. The condition after Easter-`with 15 more children may be imagined.` A teacher should be engaged till summer holidays -taking Part II. and highest class in Part I, ` .I am"p1eased `to report theoffer `of the 'Horticultura1'Society to pro- `vide ower `seeds gratuitously and give prizes-exclusively for `the child- ren.

In `many cases it is unfair to hold their teacher responsible for untidy-_work and poor writing.

Its moral effect cannot be overestimated. , ~ I would recommend that suitable pens and pen points be provided free, and that pencils and workbooks of good cluali-ty~ be purchased; in =quantity- and either be furnished free__or sold at cost to children.
