The HIGH School.

The old High School probably suffered
as much as if not more than any other
school from the over-crowding process.
There two pupils are placed on seat
built for one, and where even the length,
breadth and height of that one has not
been sufficiently estimated. This makes
the pupils appreciate the cool weather
even more than they would otherwise
have done. though there is the usual
squabbling over who shall sit with whom.
There is also the usual grumbling, and
not without the best of cause, from the
girls, about the tiresome stair climbing
before they can reach their respective
class rooms.
