L. MacDiarmid, at the annual. meeting of the Hamilton High School to-day.
| -Mr. MacDiarmid said that although* requests had been made to the Minister of Education and to the Director of Education for the matter to he proceeded with, there had been no result.It was most important, the chairman continued, that if the proposed changes were to be made they should be carried into effect as soon as possible. In view of the uncertainty of the position, the board had been- unable to obtain the much-needed additions to the buildings and essential equipment. The school was thus suffering, and boys and girls -were being deprived of essential educational facilities.
Mr. MacDiarmid said there was an urgent need for separate boys' and girls' high schools in Hamilton, and, in his opinion, when these were being provided, adequate boarding establishments should be included.
