Mr.. Archinal. from the Committee on
Buildings, reported ~ follows on the
bids for the erection OF the proposed
new High School Building:
Your Committee on Buildings Ia
whom wab referred the several bids for
the proposed High School building, have
carefully examined the same and fild
that they are far In excess OF what we
deem 10 be the sense OF the Board rela'
tive TO the cost OF said building, Taking
the lowest bids on all the different parts
OF the stone building, the aggregate sum
10 800. 7i7 90; for pressed brick, with
stone trimmings, the aggregate sum Ia
| S02, 1905. Either OF these two would,
with tho extras, run considerably over
| 100000.
Now, taking Into consideration the
fact that In the near iutnre we must re-
lieye some OF the other ward schools
which are all In an 0yer.crowded con-
dition. that la, we must erect one OF
more ward schools before long, II be-
4 hoOyes this Board TO be careful and
economical In the expenditure OF
money, Your committee therefore
recommends the rejection OF all bids
and the preparing OF q new aet OF plans
for q building. the cost OF which shall
not exceed $4,000, with heating appar
atua and everything o. mplete.
