boilers, also the boys play room and
toilet room which is reached by a con-
crete stairway from the rear. The
basement floor is all concrete.
+" Two Fuller and Warren hot air
furnaces are installed in each side of
the building and one steam boiler in
center. The committee after investi-
eating several heating systems decid-
ed to install the Fuller and Warren
system, which is guaranteed to fur
nish thirty cubic feet of air per min
ute to each scholar, and a bond of
$1,000 was given to guarantee that 1T
would heat the building n do all
that it is guaranteed to DO.
In passing along the hall on third
floor there are two school rooms on
each side, and at the rear end on the
right is the principals office which
is 10x24 and on the left, the teachers
room 10x24 with a toilet room. In
the hall on first floor there is a SAM.
tary drinking fountain. All ceilings
both in the balls and all other rooms
are of pressed steel tinted in such
colors as will be best for the scholars
eyes. Every room is equipped with
Tungsten electric lamps with 16-inck
X-Ray shades. The walls of recita
ton and school rooms are we'll GOV
cred with blackboards and nearly al.
new seats, the few old ones that were
used were given a coat of stain anC
varnish so it is hard to tell the ole
from the new ones.
Passing up the broad stairway ii
front which is made in three sections,
having two landings, You enter the
hallway on the second floor which i:
exactly like the one on the first, an(
the rooms are nearly the same except
the high school room which is on the
left at the ear and is the larges
room, there are two schoolrooms or
each side and on the right at the
rear there is also a recitation room OF
this foor at the front.
An electric program master self
winding clock is installed in the high
school room which has seven second
airy clocks, or one in each room ant
the call bells are all rung from this
The high room and halls are furnished
in southern pine, natural finish an(
all other rooms are painted. All floors
are laid of hardwood and oiled, thu
stairs are made of hardwood and al
treads are covered with corrugated
rubber mating. All woodwork was
painted, vanished or oiled both in
side and out.
The committee feels that they have
made just as fine a schoolhouse as
was possible from what they had tt
do with. They regret the delay tina
was forced by not having the building
ready by Sept. LIST but it vas IN
avoidable as it vas impossible to ge
material around in time to finish.
The committee requests thai theiI
accounts be audited and their repor
accepted and they be dismissed from
further duty.
The entire cost of the model build
ing is $11564. SO.

REPORT OF BUILDING COMMITTEE.

To the citizens of the school district
of Orleans.
Gentlemen
The committee whom you instructed
to remodel the old schoolhouse beg to
submit the following report. They
advertised in the papers published in
several parts of the state for bids and
received only two bids and those we're
for only part of the contract. Your
committee thought if they had to do
part of it they might as we'll do the
whole of it and B. A. Scott was
placed in charge of the work and it
was done by day work and the citizens
may rest assured that they got value
received for every dollar that was paid
out.
They have taken the old building.
raised it 40 inches above its old
foundation, removed the ell and
moved it yer onto the west side and
the building practically a square
building.
A concrete foundation was put in
after digging out the cellar. and three
feet of brick work was placed on top,
making the basement nine feet high
SO it is light and sanitary.
In doing this work We found it
would be for the interest of the viii
q lage that all heating 1ues should be
made of brick instead of having them
partly of wood and plaster, therefore
the committee decided to change the
plan and put in all brick f1ues, making
the difference in the cost of the
change over $500.
The building has been remodeled
and reconstructed in such a way that
there is hardly any of the old building
that is now left visible. It is all laid
out on the most modern plans with one
of the most modern heating and ven
tilating systems that is known. Elec-
trio clocks have been installed and all
furnishings that are necessary have
been placed in the building.
Their are now eight rooms, the
smallest room will seat AZ scholars,
which is as many as the state law
says that any one teacher should
teach. The high school room will seat
So scholars. Total seating capacity
374. There are two rooms that at
the present time there was no neces-
sity of using, therefore there was no
furnishings placed in them.
No doubt nearly every citizen has
examined the work as it progressed
and realized what the committee had
to do.
The projection on front of the old
b uilding was left and was utilized for
vestibule and stairway also one reci-
tation room. A new hip roof was put
or the whole building.
Entering the front door there is a
vestibule 5x20 feet with cement
floor. Passing through double acting
doors you go up six steps into a fine
large hallway which extends to the
rear end of the building, where it
ends with steps leading to the back
entrance.
From the vestibule in front there is
a door with concrete stairway leading
Q the basement, where there is a
lay room 30X40 feet to be used by the
iris IN stormy weather, also another
large room for girls toilet room.
The basement is lathed with steel
laths and plastered and, all walls
painted white. There is a dividing
wall between the part Of basement
which is reserved for furnaces and
