ROYAL SCHOOL.-The time has
come when without question this time
hOnOred institution should be suit
ably housed. The present structure
has faithfully served It's day and gen
Grafton and should be perpetuated only
in photography. Honolulu is not sub
iect to severe earthquakes, but our
last visitation left it's impress on these
historic walls, and n second shock
would endanger the lives of the Occu-
pants. The place occupied by the
Royal School is an important one; the
situation is fine. the grounds large.
aHd the whole place might be made
one Of the attractive spots in the city.
The associations of the past are such
that this school should always be Roy

handsome building. a new building
is certainly an imperative necessity:

contrary 10 expectation the agent at
HilO does not ask for enlargement of
Hilo Union school. We conclude, there
fore, that in spite of rapidly increasing
population the present building is con-
sidered large enough to meet the wants
OF the next two years.
In the matter of teachers cottages
the Board confess to some degree of
sensitiveness. We cannot help feeling
that sufficient attention has not been
given to this subject in the past. 1t is
not necessary to construct elegant man
sions, but teachers home should be
real home-comfortable and attrac-
tive. Many of our teachers have to
make great sacrifices to live in the out
of-the-way places in which some of the
country schools are situated. They are
often inexpressibly lonely. We can
hardly expect them to do the best work
unless We do our part. A comfortable
home is teachers prerogative, aud il
should not be necessary for the Board
TO blush on pointing out to a new in
cumbent the habitation provided for
him. II our teachers are to preserve
their own self-respect and command
the respect of their pupils they must be
so housed as to prove that they have
the respect of the Board. 1t is with
these considerations in mind that your
committee asks for an increased ap-
preparation for teachers cottages.
Question Of School Lands.
Most of the school buildings are on
lands owned by the department. In
some instances exchanges have been
made some with formal exchange OF
deeds, some merely verbal agreement
! The committee recommends that these
matters be looked up and all legal for
malities attended to. This will neces-
state some surveys of lands belonging
to the department.
The appropriation for repairs has al.
| ways been too small, for this reason
many buildings have not lived out theil
| allotted span. In view of this and Of
/ the large increase in the number o
/ buildings under our care We feel thai
an allowance double that of the las
biennial period is very conservative
estimate.
Estimates on buildings now standing
with no allowance for increased mum
Der of buildings or at most only par
tial allowance for such increase, foo
up S24.795 The last allowance for re
pairs was $4,000. In view of the fact
above stated the committee feel en-
tirely justified in asking for an appro
(priation for the next two years of $50,
10000.
1t will be noticed that estimates var.
for school houses of the same grade
for example, One-room mouse in 10

in Kona. This is accounted for by tn
fact that in windy district II Is neces
