Need of More SchooIs.

The board of education will meet Monday evening to consider and act upon the estimates for appropriations for the ensuing year. The committee on schools will meet to-day at 2.30 D. m. to prepare the estimates to sub init to the board. There was consid- erable sum of money collected for school purposes, on the school tax. which was not used last year. and the members of the board are hopeful that the board of finance will appropriate a part of the unexpended balance for new buildings. Last year the board of education put the proposed new build ing in Cedar street in the list as the most pressing demand and this request will probably be renewed this year. A new building will cost from $40,O to $5O,OOO
 The board also desires the eonstruc- tion of a new school house in the Lowell district, on the new lot at Liv- tngstone and Gamer streets. If only one building can be built the board will decide which of the two to recommend.
 Another factor in the situation Is the new law which provides that children shall attend school until the age of six teen years unless employed The old law was to the age Of fourteen. conse- quently school accommodations must be provided for children between the ages of five and sixteen years.
