' Read and consider carefully Impea- tor Levan's report. Your Board has given very careful study to our situation and has made recommendations as ouniined in a Wr-taw which your town council is submitting on June 3rd. . Several things nave influenced the Board in its recommendations. Among“ qthers are the following: ' This accommodation including buildings, equipment and staff, must comply with the standards ‘of the De.. partment of: Education. Your Board of Education has not made these laws. It is charged with complying with them. This law has resulted in a greatly increased attendance at both Public' and High Schools. What the Education Act Requires Legislation has been passed from time to time, which requires that un-' der the compulsion of the statutes ot Ontario each School Section shall pro- vide Public School accommodation tor every boy and girl of school age with- in the corporation. Just as the School Section is required to 'provide public school accommodation for the children ot the section, so legislation now standing requires further that every High School district shall pro- viue High School accommodation for county students up to the age of Iii. (See Chap. 26, Section 43, Act re- specting High Schools.) ' The new Jaw effective Sept. 1, 1921, enacted by Ontario Provincial Parlia- ment requires all boys and girls to attend school up to the age of 16 un- less they are permitted by the gov- erning bodies to obtain work. The aim of the law is to make pro- vision tor every Canadian boy and girl to get a't‘air education before going out into life. Three of these classes we were torc- ed to house in our New Memorial School, two of the classes in regular class rooms, and one in a class ro‘om we fitted/up in the basement ot Mem- orial Schoél. ' ‘ Last September we expected 100 new students. AVe actually got 160, making with the regular returning students, nine classes in all. quire at least 16 class rooms. We have 6 rooms in our present High School building; we need f) new rooms more.’ Unless we can add these ‘When school opens, we will have' less than half the accommodation that is necessary. How We Tried to "Get By" This,Year You read in last weWs issue what Inspector levan said about the over- crowding in our High School. Ontario High School regulations re- quire a teacher for every 30 students. Then, nekt year's attendance will Le- quire at least 16 class rooms. We have 6 rooms in our present Our High School building has six rooms with a total capacity of 180 students. There are at present attend- ingGVeston High School 344 students. There are in our High School district, in the Entrance Class and Continua- tion Classes 393 pupils, from which we can reasonably expect 225 to 250 students for the first class in Weston hlgn School next September. In all probability there will be a total of 75 students pass out of our High School ' stop school this mid-summer.

What does this extra hour of sunlight mean to us? Does it give us any opportunity or is it an hour ot sleep wasted? It can be made a very profitable hour it it 'is used right or it can be made a detriment if wasted. Anyone that will devote the extra hour of daylight to work in the garden, physical exer- cise in the open air, healthful games, getting out into the open air with the family or away on the water for an hour _. then the time is not wasted. There is nothing that will develop a community like the proper use of this extra hour for community games, con- certs, athletic meets, general town- beautifying plans and the creating ot a general community spirit. It can be done advantageously. What is to stop the citizens spending a, night in the Week on the fair grounds? With weekly attractions there the whole town would turn out. Would the fresh air and the entertainment not be helpful? It Certainly would be beneficial to our town. Why not make an effort to have the Humber Valley walk all laid put, so that the town could use it? It would be possible to have the citizens give a little of this time to assisting in clearing of a nice walk to the upper end of the Humber. All these -matters require attention and leadership. It can be had in our town; the hour can be utilized if the leadership will only come forth. Our civic improvement committee have plans. Why not make use ot the citi- zenship of the town and this extra hour to make and develop our town and the community spirit.

The following four gentlemen were nominated in due course and accept- ed the appointment: James R. Den- nis,_J. C. Irwine, A. M. Oldham, T. L. Moftatt. ' A question has been raised as to the attitude of the members of the oBard of Education and the Advisory Committee regarding the enlargement of Weston High School, and the addi- tion of industrial and vocational edu- cation to the regular work of the school.

But our latest school has as much wood finish as the other buildings. It has also wooden stairs that feel none too solid under foot and they are nar- row as well. Where is the economy today in erecting a school or any building for regular public use which is constructed of light and compara- tively inflammable material. Repairs and maintainence rise out of propor- tion as time goes on. We have no money to waste as I well know, but is the money declared to be saved by this sort of a building policy, worth the life of even one school child? Weston is no more immune from tire than any other place. We have brick walls, it is true,- and in one school metal sash, but it is inside where the fire starts generally. , T" .It more building is to be’done let the fire risk bthaken into account. ._1 f ' F.. s", ' ECONOMY. Is there any member of the Board of Education or of the Council with courage enough to raise his voice against our building in Weston any more schools that are little better than tire traps? If we need a bigger High School are we in the name of Economy going to tolerate some jerry built thing that will be skimped wherever a. nail or board can be done without and have a structure through which a. fire can race like a blaze on the prairie? Editor Times and Guide Sports have received the greatest boost that has ever been tried in town. Three lacrosse teams and six indoor ball teams are the results of last year's work, which certainly was not smooth sailing, although the ob- stacles that had to be overcome were the natural obstacles. The fruits of last year's work are showing and are indeed very encouraging. The citi- zens have supported every enterprise that has been tried and the results are most gratifying. The concerts held last year were well patronized and or; a percentage basis somewhat better than some oflthe lacrosse matches. However this year will be the gala year for lacrosse locally, and it is hoped that the undivided support of the town will be behind the Simon Pures and that with this support they will come through again this year and with a little better success than' last year. . At a meeting of the executive of the Weston Amateur Athletic Club, it was decided to hold a field day on Saturday, July Ist, This will give the fans an opportunity 'who stop at home that day to see some real good amateur lacrosse as it is anticipated that there will be two snappy games. Besides lacrosse there will be other forms of entertainment such as ac- company field days and dancing will again be one of the features. The popularity of field days has always been exemplified, especially when featured by a good lacrosse match. Now that the schedules have been drawn up, arrangements can be made so that a real good entertainment will be provided for the summer months. With three good amateur teams in the field, the Athletic Club are certainly going to come through with something that will give the fans something tor their money. (Last year the intermediates did not get away to such a flying start, but they finished very strong. This year they will be replaced by the juniors l with stars like Hugill in goal, McGen- nis on the defence, Stokes on the home with Bridger. These boys will return to the fold after having spent ja season with Woodbridge and with (whom they made such a creditable showing, having won their district and incidentally qualified for the semi- finals. Gord. McKitterick will be missed from the line-up this year, but his place will be taken by those who have been promoted from last year's juveniles. Harry Jennings has got lhis Midgets running smoothly and getting into last year's championship' form. The team' this year will be stronger than ever as he has only lost two or three players by reason of the age limit. These boys are shaping up nicely and will make splendid juven- iles. Harry has the right- idea of training the young lads and they stay right with him. Art Mallaby is look- ing after the juveniles and they are rounding into shape. There is just one thing that is apt to creep in and that is all may not adhere strictly to Webster's Dictionary, as all the words that may be used will be contained therein. By careful training these boys will come through as good clean players, both by tactics and other ways. A good amateur training will have a part in fitting them tor the' higher things in life when they tackle j the business world. Trink is work-l ing hard with. the juniors, and his) season’s work is out out for ,himf A} couple of years ago he produced al splendid working team and every‘ facility will be advanced this year to enable him to repeat. One of the most enthusiastic orork- ers that has taken an interest in sports is C. R. Lacey. He is general' manager of the soft ball league and this year he has superseded -his splen- did efforts of last year. He has at present six teams in the league with a schedule of sixty games. The league will be playing nearly every night in the week for the next three months. Under his jurisdiction, there is the Merchants' team, the Young Men, the Married Men, the Commuters, West- mount and the Business Men. He has spared nothing to' get things running smoothly and he has certainly made a very creditable showing. His executive has also given him very fine support. The league opened on Mon- day night, when they put into use their entire new equipment, which included new bats, balls and a new set of bases. This league drew ex- cellent support last year and the efforts of the enthusiasts have been rewarded to no small degree. All Hum HELD i, ill?
