McCombs The High School Building The school administration began an agitation for a new building back in the summer of ’22. The school authorities were shown the need by reason of the necessary use of many outside cottages. Finally, the county board and the local authorities came to an agreement by the good offices cf Mr. John J. Blair, state supervisor of buildings; whereby Mr. Lewis H. Asbury, Charlotte architect, submitted a plan of a structure very popular all over the state — the E plan to which additions may be easily made when necessary in the future. The front down stairs comprises four rooms, principal’s office, and teacher’s rest room, upstairs, four rooms and spacious library. Across the seven foot hall are four rooms and auditorium down stairs, and up stairs, five rooms occupied by the Science and Home Economics departments. These departments are fully equipped with standard Kewannee-made apparatus, tables and sinks with gas and water con- nections. The entire building is heated by steam. The north end of the building is on the side of a hill making it possible to have three school rooms nearly on the surface. All stairs are reached by absolutely fire proof stair towers at each end of the building. Under the auditorium is ample space for the addition of Industrial Arts, Carpentry, and Printing Department. The principal’s office is equipped with a filing cabinet, desk, and signal clock. The Cannon Manufacturing Company, the largest manufacturers of towels in the world, is wonderfully and adequately providing school facilities for the children of its operators and citizens of the community and surrounding country.
