DIR. Young, of the State Board of Health
in his report of inspection of the Cony High
School building in this city, thus describes
the way in which the main schoolroom is
lighted, and, incidentally, it gives good
hint at the general principles to be consid-
cred in lighting the scheolrooms. He says;
1.-The windows on the two sides look TO the
north and the south, and when the sun is
shining, the inside shutters on the south
(the scholars left) are kept closed, thus the
principle light for all the school then comes
from the right hand side, and the light from
those near the south side struggles through
the chinks of the blinds, or comes in too
feeble intensity from the distant north win
dows. This method of taking the light from
the north and south sides has its advocates,
but when the room is more than "a or 25
feet in width, the lighting cannot be expect
ed to be entirely satisfactory, when the shut
tiers on one side are closed. When it is pos
sibie, the scholars desks should be so ar
ranged when this north and south lighting is
used, that the light from the north windows
shall come from the scholars left"
