Fair Association
Starts Fund For
Arena Paving

A suggestion by the War Memorial
Society that the Fair Association
might contribute towards the cost
of hardsurfacing the arena floor,
resulted in members of the latter
group setting aside $333 in a fund
© he used for this work when they
considered the propo: yn at their
annual meeting February sth.

The money wii be held in a
special account and will in al
probability be added to each year
until the contemplated work is un-
dertaken. The treasnrer’s report
showed the Fair Association has a
hank balance of $113 as a result
of their two ventures in staging a
‘air here.

Dates for this year’s fair hava
been set ahead to August 21 and 22.
This is a week earlier than last year
and the move is expected to result in
exhibitors producing even a better
showing, particularly in the large
lower divisions. Sear

Letters to

February 18, 1952.
Editor, The Tribune,

Williams Lake, B.C.
Dear Sir:

It is requested that you publish
the following facts in answer to
Fair Question,” an editorial which
appeared in The Tribune on Febru-
ary 14th, 1952:

On February 9th. 1951, the Board
presented to the Representatives of
School District No. 27 its estimates
for a By-law. Within, these estimates
was an item of $9.000.00 for an ad-
dition of one class room to the ex-
isting one-room school at Forest
Grove and a heating plant. This
}attimate was-based on the following:
(a) Average cost of con-
struction of similar
one-room schools ..... $6,090.00
Average cost of
heating plant

e

(bd)

for

these schools .... 1,300 90
(c) Additional cost of
furnace room and
corridor 1,700.06
Total 39,000.00

At this meeting the Representa-
tives from the Forest Grove area
(Mr. G. A. Duke) Mr. R. M. Dare,
E. A. Nadin and Mr. H. R. Devore) !
requested that provision be made for
a partial basement under the new
section to contain the heating plant
and toilet and washroom ilities,

A Motion moved by Mr. Nadin and
seconded by Mr. Luke’ was passed
“That the estimates for an addition
of a class room at Forest Gorve
school be increased by $1,000 in or-
der to provide plumbing aad a par-
lial basement.” During the discus-
sion on this Motion, the Board and
Mr. W. J. Mouat, Inspector of
Schools, expressed their doubts that
this could he done for $1,000.00 The
Forest Grove Representatives, how-
ever, were insistent and stated that
they had had advice from local con-
tractors.

The facts of the matter are, there-
fore, that the Board altered its or-
iginal plans on the express recom-
mendation and estimates of the For:
est Grove Representatives. The Board
cannot see how its actions could
cause ‘‘A loss of faith with the people
of the area concerned.’

The Board subsequently felt that
the detailed plans and specifications,
which would be reauired in a con-
tract to insure that the work was
done properly, would require pre
paration by an architect. When first

the Editor

McCarter & Nairne of Vancouver)
felt that the job could be done for
$10,000.00. After securing a survey
of the actual site and devoting con-
siderable study to the situation, this
reliable firm of architects advised.
the Board that the job would cost
$19,600.00.

The Board, therefore, feels that
it must revert to its original plan of
providing an additional class room.
it is felt that by simplifying the]*
plans this can be done for consider-
ably less than the $10,000.00 pro-
vided in the By-law. The surplus
