operation by 1952 the sch6ol board survey shows that by 1954 the enrolment will have increased by a minimum of i 50 pupils the present building- cannot possibly take care of these in fact even now it is overcrowded and classrooms are top full to provide the best instruction it is impossible to build an addition to this building playground space is inade quate and this would be intensified- if more children were put into less spacfe the new school is the only answerfor adequate education of our young people the question will be put before the ratepayers some time next fall in the form of a money bylaw vote council feels that they asan elected body have not the power to make a decision on the expenditure of close to 200000 it is quite proper that a vote be taken and we favour it- at the same time it is to be hoped that council members individually and collect ively will take a strong stand tfixhe matter it is not enough fdf council to say we will have a vote let the people decide in matters of major importance we should expect our councillors to have opinions based on a careful study of the matter if council thinks a new school is a necessity it should say so in no uncer tain terms and urge every ratepayer to support the jnoney vote if no school what then supposing for orli rf ason or another a new school is not built what effect will it have on elementary edu- cation we should judge that the first stepwouldbe to abolish the kindergijrtenprimary classes which have shown their worth since they were started three years ago they are not an absolute necessity and doing away with them would provide one extra classroom at the present school when school enrolment reached the stage that more room still was needed it would then be up to the school board to either use present buildings such asthe old town hall library or armouries or build temporary accommodation this would have a decided detrimental effect on school administration particularly if the auxiliary classrooms were too far from the school to permit easy access to the main build ing for assembly periods and for sports and games whatever temporary measures were taken the question of cost would still rear its head there would be considerable expense involved in remodelling any building to meet the requirements of the department of education and this would be money wasted it would also be expense on which no government grant is paid and would be wholly borne by the town treas- labor and farmer discussed by forun brampton fakm n6u8b burned totsrooniv- a 03yenrold farmhouse owned by w j
