have a mild wet fall and the winter
not to be bad, but clear and bright
with one’ cold snap abott Christmas,
but plenty of snow.

plans for coping with the ‘problem of
providing more accommodation — to
take care of the big inerense in school

| attendance this term.

_ The Smithers scheol at present
consists of four publie school vooms
nnd a high school, and three of the
rooms now contain fifty or more pu-
pila each. As a solution the trustees

nuother teacher be obtained and a
temporary room he secure to re-
lieve the overcrowded condition now
prevailing. The meeting sanctioned
this plan and an additional requisition
of $1500.00 was voted . The building
formerly oecupled by the Royal Bank
is to be nsed as a temporary schol
room. -

It was also shown that if the pres-
ent increase in attelidance nt the hich

would not be sufficient after this term,
To be prepared in event of this, the
