EXPLAINS WHY MORE ROOM IS REQUIRED Town Gained But One Room When New School House Was Built, FAVORS. PORTABLE BUILDING. Rev. F. L. Grant Talks About School Needs—New Books Secured for Li- brary—Usher Elected a Vice Presi- ; dent—Conlon Takes Possession. Correcting a mistaken impression en? tertained by many of Lpe townspeople regarding the congestion’ which' will inevitably exist in'the schools in the fall unless more adequate accommo- dationg for the children are provided, Reév, F. L. Grant explained today that at the time the Grammar school build- in® was erected but a single room was gained. The building is a four room structure ‘but Mr. Grant shows that three of thegrooms had to be utilized by grades ich formerly occupiéd Places either in the basement of the old building or in the Parish house of the Church of Our Savious. When the building was constructed the board decided to €ive up using the basement for school purposes as the members did, not believe that it was suitable for a study room for the children. The kindergarten was also taken from the Parish house and moved to the town’s school plant. Consequently but one extra room was provided. The natural growth of the town since that time has made anoth- er roo mnecessary if the kindergarten is to be maintained and the school board believes the present quarters should be enlarged either by a port- able building or an addition to the structure now in use. At the special town meeting, which will probably be held next week, thrce propositions will be submitted to the voters. It will be explained that the kindergarten. must be given up or a portable building or addition to the Gramar school house arranged for. The portable structure is favored by the school board members. They de- clare such a building can be purchas- ed for about $700 and should the time arrive when conditions demand a new schodl house or a substantial addition to one of those now in use, it can be sold at a good price as it will be suitable for many things other than school purposes. If a;portable building is provided, the board intends to use it for the kindergarten, utilizing the room which that department occupies, probably for the overflow from the sixth and geventh grades. New Books for Idbrary. The board of library directors has purchased a number of new books for the town's library. In the col- lection are several works of fiction besides tratises on a wealth of sub- jects in which the public is interested. The new books, which are now 1eady for circulation, are as follows: Girl of the Blue Ridge,Freskine; Remember the Alamo, Ellis;Don't Give Up the Ship, Wooa; The Two Captains, Brady; Frank Merriwell's School Days, Frank Merriwell's Chums Frank Merriwell's Foes; Standish; What Men Live By, Cabot; Saturday With My Camera, Johnson; Increasing Mental Effictency, Wil- liams; Training of a Forrestér, Pin- chot; Landmarks of a Lawyer’s Life- time, Stromg; Socialism, Hillquit; So- cial Aspects of Forelgn Missions, Faunce; Keeper of the Door, Dell; League of Five, Post; Martha of the Mennonite Country, Martin; The Short' Story, Cross; Cruise of the Lively Bee, De Morgan; In Glory's Van, Lunnsberry; The Careful In- church | vestor, Mead.
