A very complete apparatus for OBJ
tanning these records Is kept In the
principals room, and the results are
quickly obtained by the pupils.
After the boys and girls had been
seated in their regular places and
hard at work for an hour or so, the
signal was given for fire drill for the
benefit of visitors. II was, of course,
entirely unexpected by the children,
but 1t was surprising to see how
quickly the seven rooms Of the
building were emptled. The time,
taken by a stopwatch, was only
thirty-sevcn seconds, which equaled
the best record. The watch is
stopped as the last child leaves the
building.
The two small corner rooms of the
, building, upstairs. are used, the first
by the principal as his Office, and
the other by the children as a read
ing room. where they find good
set Of the books which appeal to
children in general and where they
get, at the same time, some good
! practice In reading English. The
latter room Is now being used by
the children during the recesses for
the making of paper Maileilima leis
and white cloth aprons which will
be worn by the boys and girls In the
special calisthenic exercises to be
held on the last day OF school, June
l24th.
The morning was ended by look
into the very complete workshop be-
hind the school house, where the
boys are given their instruction in
wood working and the use OF car
penter tools. Here there are two
rooms, one of which is the carpen-
ter shop, with room for sixteen boys,
and the other the knife work room,
where twenty boys can work COM
fortably at one time.
In the carpenters shop was seen
the very complete combination car
penter's tool chest and work bench,
which, when closed, keeps safe the
several hundred tools of all kinds
which are kept In II, and which,
when opened up, is changed into a
good sized work bench.
