Smith The School Buiildfing and Equrijmzent The Collegiate Institute Building and Grounds are beautiful and spacious. The building is equipped throughout according to the most modern and approved methods. A large addition is being made to the building this year and, when this is completed, it is expected that the Regina Collegiate Institute will be one of the finest in Western Canada. In addition to the twelve regular class rooms, provision is being made for an art room, a commercial department of two rooms, three science rooms, a teachers' room, a Board room, two students' reading rooms, a library, principal's office, an audi- torium and a gymnasium. A full course in commercial work will be given to those students desiring such training next year. This will extend over two years' time. The chemical and physical laboratories are equipped with up-to-date apparatus of all kinds for demon- stration purposes as well as for individual work by students. Recently there has been added to the equipment a motor generator which provides direct current at the students' tables in the laboratories, thus making possible for the students individual work in electrolysis and other experiments in electricity. Special attention is being given to the course in art. At present all students of the Junior school may continue such training for two years, and, when the present addition to the Collegiate is completed, it is expected that a course in more

A mathematical science laboratory is being fitted up to facilitate the teaching of the practical and mechanical phases of this study. The new gymnasium will be a strong feature of the Collegiate Institute. All students will be required to take physical training under competent instructors. Lockers, shower baths and dressing rooms are provided for all the students desiring such. The school library contains books of interest for all students. At present there are about twelve hundred volumes of standard works in History, English, Classics Modern, Mathematics, Science and Fiction, in addition to such reference books as the Encyclopaedia Britannica, Standard Dictionaries,etc Special attention has been given to the supplementary reading during the past few years, and every effort is made to develop a love for wider and more extensive reading among the students. The library is an open library, that the students may have free access at all times to the reference books and those for circula- tion. The works of art about the school building are particu- larly pleasing. Each year a liberal appropriation is made by the Board towards the purchase of pictures and plaster repro- ductions of famous works of sculpture, all of which tend to create for our students an atmosphere of cheer and a love for the beautiful Attendance Enrolment 1907 1908 ............... .,.. 1 30 students Enrolment 1908 1909 .... 160 students Enrolment 1909 1910 .... 210 students Enrolment 1910 1911 .... 235 students Enrolment 1911 1912 ........................ 291 students Enrolment 1912 1913 ........................ 386 students Senior Form-First Class and Senior Matriculation . ..... 34 Middle Form-Second Class and Junior Matriculation . . . 69 Third Class, Part II .................................. 187 Third Class, Part I ..... . . . 96 Total ..... ............. . , . 386 Admission In order to be entitled to enter upon the courses of study prescrf bed for High Schools and Collegiate Institutes a student must hold a Grade VIII Diploma from the Department of Education of Saskatchewan or standing equivalent thereto.
