» » » £ ctzncz In our new school plan, co-ordination between the subjects taught in shop and agriculture is being fostered. That is, things taught in the shop are of use in the Agriculture Department, for example: mixing concrete, brick laying, cutting glass, etc. In the new agriculture laboratory there is a very large demonstration desk with hot and cold running water, gas and electric outlets, and a lead-lined sink. The ten students ' tables seat four pupils each and every table has an acid resistant top. These, too, have gas outlets and sinks. In the old building, students had no opportunity whatsoever of carrying on experi¬ ments at tables meant for that purpose. Students had on.y the regular type of desks on which to work. There is a conveniently located store room immediately off the lab. where all materials may Ibe kept. There is an outer door leading out of the store-room in order to enable agriculture classes to go outdoors to work without disturbing other classes. The annex of the old building is to be moved across the highway to be used as an agri¬ culture building. It will be used for some experi¬ ments as well as for storage. Another addition to this department in the near future will be a green¬ house. Also, an irrigation system is to be installed in the garden. The students are extremely fortunate in having a wide variety of new and different equipment with which to work. The modem Physics Laboratory, room 206, with its very new up-to-date equipment is well worth mention. The most convenient, large demonstration desk with acid resisting top is well equipped with hot and cold running water, a double gas outlet, a vitreous china sink as well as a lead lined sink. There are eighteen student tables each with a double gas outlet, electric outlets, two open book shelves, a centre drawer with doors below with a lock. The tables are light finished birch also with black acid-proof tops. The forty stools are of match¬ ing colour. This equipment is a far cry from that which had ' to be used in the old school. In the new school the chemistry laboratory is Room Number 207 on the second floor. New, modern, fully equpped students ' experi¬ ment desks have been installed. Each desk has water and electricity outlets as well as a sink. The desks each have two shelves, one drawer, and a small cupboard space. There is a very large demonstration desk which is of a much better quality than that used in the old building. As in the agriculture, all chemicals being used by the students are kept in a glass enclosed case under the blackboards at the front of the room. Equipment and glassware for students ' experiments in the labs is valued at $1,500. The lab also has abundant storage space—a fairly large store-room being located just off the chemistry lab. —JOYCE MOODY, KAZUKI SHIKAZE
