had engaged architect j d kylea to prepare cost estimates of one school and two schools these estimates show that costs of building two schools will be about 840 000 on which a grant of 000 000 is paid by the government cost of operat ing the two schools taking into ac count the issuing of debentures is 84 000 cost of build i jig one school would be 502 000 with s government grant of 420000 there would bo extra expense for installing sewer- age and water service and it is es timated that the annual cost of school operation would be 01 000 the board felt that in spite of a saving of about 25000 a year in operating costs georgetown would be about 5 000 to the good under the present scale of cost splitting there arc more factors in favour of building two schools in he two towns than one school in the coun try it la important to conaldar mist on or both towns might grow to such proportion that a school in the town would be a necessity and in future a school in the country coujd be a
