THE GRAND JURY
PRESENTMENTS

squares OF marble in the thing fcol
are missing. These should Z e repiac.
ed at once as delay win cause fur
theT damage 10 the floors. We note
some broken glasses in the doors and
one in the window which should b.
replaced, Also that the lectric light
connection, which is n the north
side OF the building, appears to be
! dangerous for the reason that the
wires are stretched and enter the
| building from near the ground, and
should the insulation Of the wires he
come worn it might result in a SER
ious accident. We would recommend
that this . changed. We also note
tAat the sand has washed away from
the cement work on the tile walk.
This sand should be properly pro-
tected from further washing, as 9th.
erwise it will cause the cement work
to sink.
School BUILDINGS
High Schooi-We find this building
III excellent condition, with the ex-
ception Of a few lights broken ont.
however, We understand that the
heating apparatus of this building is
very detective; that is never worked
successfully and as result a NUMBER
Of the rooms cannot be heated at all.
1t is most important that this defect
in the heating system be remedied
before the next school term as we
understand that there were numerous
complaints made last season bv the
scholars and parents by reason Of
the rooms not being properly heated
and Professor Ballard has advised
that this condition exists as a result
Of defect in The original construc-
ton OF the building There is a de-
feet in the plumbing and one drink.
ing foutain on the second floor is
causing leakage, which is liable to
result in considerable damage to the
building if not remedied. An effort
has already been made to locate this
leakage, but We are advised that it
Cas not yet been FUND.
GIynn Grammar schooI-This build
ing needs new roof over the en-
tire building as the present roof
leaks badly in all parts The roof
IS tin roof and it is impractical to
repair it 9he roof has been leaking
LOT some time, and the further delay
the putting on CT a new roof will
no doubt result in further damage.
With the exception Of few lights
0ut and some necessary painting.
Wlicn we understand is usually done
during the vacation season. the build
ING is in very fair repair. We are
advised, however. that SINE of the
10 sills are rotted. 1; will require
a careful examination to determine
the extent Of this, but recommend
that this be locked after and the nee
essary work done
Glynn Acsdemy-This building is not
in use. Ii is in very bad state of
repair
PurVis school-One. on seeing this
building is Immediately impressed
with the great need of two substan-
tlal atS OF paint on the outside of
the 1j.lii7@, This is a good build i
ing and it is unfortunate that it
should lie allowed to deteriorate and
look so delapidated by the need of
paint With the exception of a few
H&1ts out: little clustering down |
and few minor repairs, this build
ing is in . Cd condition We under |
s'2"d that these minor repairs are
usually made to the building during
the vacation season, but the building
should at once be painted
Risley School-Paint would add very
much indeed to the appearance of
this building, both inside and outside
There are numerous lights out in the
building, and tho toilets fer bOtl
girls and boys are in very bad condi-
ton, and We would suggest that the
best remedy for this would be an en-
tiIely new toilet for Goth girls and
bows.
Country SchcoIs-ln as muc1 as

an effort to see them. We made in
