In presenting the report of his committee, asking for a ten room school "in Cataragui ward, Trustee Macdonald stated that the matter had been given careful consideration, anu all the information possible had been secured, and it was found that the erying need for mere accommodation came front Cataraqui ward.

At the request of 'I'rustee Eliott, Inspector Stuart, who was in consul- tation with the management com- mittee, when the location of a new scircol 'was threshed out, was asked to explain the needs of Cataraqui ward, and he did so, giving the mem- bers a resume of conditions as he had found them. While advocating a new school for Cataraqui ward, Mr. Stuart stated that a four-room school in Rideau ward, would be highly de- sirable. West of Nelson street, he figured that there were sixty pupils of all grades, and they had a long distance to go to school but they would have to go far afield to com- plete the classes. It would be satis- factory if one scheol should be erect~ | ed to cover the district of Central and Cataraqui schools. The total school population in this district was estimated at 876. The attendance at Cataraqui school#was given as 160 and Central at 440. Mr. Stuart strongly emphasized the need of a kindergarden for Catara- qui school, Trustee Farrell said he was in fav- or of having the new school in Cat- aragui ward. This ward had for many years been hgpdicapped for accommodation, and Telt it should wow be served and that the next new school, after Cataraqui, should go to Rideau ward, as it was in this sec- tion of the city the growth was shown. Trustee Lemmon also spoke strongly in favor of Cataragui ward for the new schoo. Trustee Elliott peinted out that he was not opposed to the site in Cat- aragui ward, but reminded his col- leagues that there were some schools which should ' be abandoned. He would be ip fuyor of meeting the needs of both Cataraqui and Rideau wards, ao 'As a reminder, Trustee Henderson spoke of Wellington street school, which is. a very poor building, and will soon have to go out of commis- sion, It is ancient and, does not in any way measure up to the needs.

Trustee Godwin did fot think toe Board was w irranted in making {he expenditure as 50 lew went from the Collegiate Institute into trades. If the plan was canried gut, he advo- cated the study of trade mechanics, so that the pupils could read a plan. Many men were given a setback be cause they could not read plans. Trustee Henderson doubted the wisdom of putting manual training in' the public schools. 1f it were technical education, the pupils might gain scmething. As tar as he had been able to lear, the manual frain- ing in the s« hools bad been regarded 1s "a time killer' only.
