The building itsélf, Wwhile of ‘brick outside, is ofâ€"all wood eonstruction underneath, and the stairways are also wood, which was normal construction for 1900, The stairways can be replaced with fireproof material and enâ€" elosed, but the cost and work inâ€" volved is considerable. We do have a sprinkler system for the fire hazard. Even if our stair@ays were replaced by fireproof material, the main skeleton of the building would remain wooden and_ the benefits would be doubtful.. faving on Vine Avenue, the origâ€" Shield‘s Township High School, built in 1900, begins today.

After repairs are made to \he roof, practically everyâ€"room will have to be replastered, and The skylights repaired.
