LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

> —-

Upper Prince Street School.

} | ' | i

Sir,—In yesterday's issue you give us an editorial paragraph respecting the manner

|in which the pupils of the Prince Street Schoul enter that building. The informa-

| tion you give us on this important question }is from the Secretary of the City School | Board. Now, sir, I know it is an easy | matter to find fault, and that we have a | large number of ** crotchety grumblers ” in ; our midst whw are often needlessly finding | fault with our public servants, but-I do not | class myself among the number. I am a parent and am deeply interested in the Prince Street School. In common witha great many other interested parents 1 beg , to enter my protest against the manner in |which the children are admitted to that | building, aud I will give you my reasons for 80 doing.

According to the present custom, the jchildren are admitted by the small rear door, aud compelled to climb a narrow }stair. Ona fine morning, when the signal jis given for the pupils to enter. they im- | mee ‘ately swarm around this rear door, and the entrance being narrow, they accumu- late until they are brought into close prox- imity with the outhouses. Gradually the | crowd disappears through this small open- ‘ing until the last ‘‘ little rose-bud ” climbs |the narrow way! Now, sir, Iam not going |to enter into a discussion about the state | of these outhouses at all times, suffice it to jsay that I do not accept the Secretary's statement; but there is another aspect of the question tu which I wish to call the at- jtention of beth the parents and the | authorities, viz: In the event of a fire, or any other casuality, causing a _ panic, 'to which dvor would these children rush to | effect their escape from the building ? They would most assuredly rush to the, little door through which they have been taught to enter, and what would the result be? Why, too horrible to contemplate! Some may think that in the event of such a cas- uality egress would be sought by the large doors, but ninety-nine out of every hun- dred would mechanically rush to the little rear dvor. I, therefore, regard this as a very important matter demanding tinme- diate attention, Jt is my opinion that these pupils should be taught to enter the school by the large front doors, and that these doors should always be in such a con- dition that they could be easily opened. They are on the south side of the building, and | do not see the wisdom of keeping

them continually fastened except on the occasion of a public examination. When Principal Anderson, Harper and_ others

taught there, both teachers and pupils en- tered by the front door. To my mind, any other way is absurd.

Before closing, | beg to ask the Secretary to kindly inform the public whether it is the intention to have the boiler in this schvo] tested, and its conngctions carefully examined previous to putting it into opera- tion for the winter?

Yours truly, A PARENT.

The City Schools. S1r,—-The Secretury of the School Board

has not answered the question relative to the entrance of the school children to the Prince Street Schvol. He has evaded the question, leaving people tv imagine that they entered by the front or proper door to the school. What the regulations were when under the control of the Methodists is nothing to the public now. Rent is paid for the school house and all the accommo- dation in connection therewith. The public want a more satisfactory answer to the ques- tion, ‘‘Why are the children compelled to enter at the back door ?” ANOTHER PARENT.

ry HE Cheapest and Best Hot Water Boiler in the market.

Only one year sinee it was patented, and one hundred (100) already in use, giving perfect satisfaction. It can’t help it, because the principle upon which it is constructed is as nearly perfect as possible.

Since taking up this branch of business, we have comp'eted several very important contracts, notably our new Dominion | Building here, and also the one at Summerside, as well as a number of private residences.

As it is inconvenient to publish many Testimonials in a newspaper advertisement, we have selected two, which we feel will convince our friends that we are the right parties to do this kind of work.

In a very short time we will again be visited by Jack Frost, and those who contemplate making their homes comfortable, with less labor and less cost than by any other means, would do well to send for us to give them estimate« at once.

My house, as you are aware, stands in an isolated and exposed situation, yet during the coldest weather the heat could be regulated to any desirable temperature My experi- ence leads me to believe that the hot water system of heating, as put in by yon, is superion to all other forms of heating I have seen, in its saving of fuel and labor, simplicity of working, cleanliness, and safety from fire, and 1 hereby recommend it as being the most healthful, comfortable, safe and economical in use. I further w ish to express my satisiaction with the manner in which the work was done by you. Yours truly,
