Editor News -Record; -During the past low months Clinton has been considering the building: of ¢t new Collegiate Institute aad T have been interested in reading the various ;et- to s that have appeared in your Upon arriving home' to spend .t Christmas vacation, I -was asked my father and several other - Parti if I would make an inspection of t school buildings with a view'to 'e pressing my opinion on the advisabi ity of remodeling. the present buil ings to put thein in a suitable ccsid Lion to -meet the requirement of Collegiate Institute for this town, • It is now five years since. I grad uated from the' Clinton ColIegia+ Institute and even at that time it we quite apparent that something week' have to be done. Now I' return after having. been actively.interested in the construction of school buildings at irarious places' in Canada•and in the United States. In looking through the building T find the condition of the school is more deplerable than I had expected to find it. My father and: I inspected the school's construction from basement to attic and fdunil that not only the floors, interior' walls and ceilings were in bad shape but also that the iuiderflooring, joists, etc,,, were in bad' Condition and quite inadequate to sup- port new floors. The windows, as well as being, very poorly located for the proper lighting of classrooms, were draughty and would need to be 'replaced by new frames. and sashes. The heating : system is in such had condition that a complete new heating and ventilating,system would have to be installed. In: short, ebout'the Duly thing about the school 4liat we found apparently in :good condition were the masonry walls and when alters• tions get in progress it is quite pin - slide that even the brick w`lls 11111 hihie to be repaired. The present' requirements of 'a school for this town would he, seven classrooms, ail auditorium, one or two science laboratories and.gymnasirun, es well as the teachers' rooms, offices, cloak -rooms toilets, etc., whieh would be necessary. Tlie present walls will by no means ever be made to snr- mound these necessities. Even by ex- tending certain of the masonry walls to make space the planning can still. be nothing' but awkward• and incon- venient avid the cost of doing this will be found to be very high. •,` From limy Ienneviedge of the cost of malting ailterations, I „would say that, the Bost of ,remodeling the old school. building to put it in anything like a permanently satisfactry condition as against the cost of building an entire- ly new school will,. by comparison, make it: quite inadvisable+to attempt an alteration scheme. My father was aIeo quite convinced of this fact. I should` like to see ' Clinton equipped with ,a school that will cit- able her to keep up the high educa- tional standard that has been .maiii- rained under a great Handicap iri the 'past. -FRED- 7.
