the ritcpicrs of halton county have had to build 1 15 new classrooms at a cost of two and threequarter million dol lors in georgetown june 1030 the enrolment was 280 in september 1052 the enrolment was 760 or almost two and onehalf times as many children and we have not reached the peak to met thed cmands of this in crease you have had to create this new school building education is making tremendous demands on the taxpayer and councils sometimes with reason a look with a critical eye upon the expenditures of school boards and accuse them of extrnvngenoe in this building i ice little to justify such criticism it is substantially and well built these is no elabor ation and little waste space it is pleasing in appearance and con- venient in its appointments it must be a source of pride to everyone in georgetown and should serve well this part of the down for some years to come i share your joy in seeing such a structure in your mldst i would indeed be remiss if i did not pay a high tribute to the school board which has provided such ac commodation for the new genera- tion board and ratepayers have a right to expect much from children educated in such a pleajjnff atmos phere i
