SCHOOL DEFICIENCIES.

In his talk about the schools yesterday Mayor
Low referring 10 the serious lack OF room, sug-
.,eSted a requirement of the situation which he
did not specify. He said that when the Board
Of Education had done it's best il not al
WAYS possible 20 ioresee where the growth of
population would be; that there might be seats
enough i'm the schools a whole. and AT the
same time a great deficiency in various local.

There rs no danger that the British nag will

Accordingly as Mr. Gerald Bafour stated at
Sheffield on Tuesday. Mr.. Morgan's combination
agrees that all ats vessels which are now Brit

certainly should allay and abolish such traces

British mind.
