PLANS OF SCHOOL-HOUSE IN SIMCOE, UPPER CANADA. The building, designed by Messer and Jones, architects, Toronto, is built of brick, at a cost of £1,700, on a lot two acres in extent, and will accommodate 600 pupils-one-half girls and the other boys-each sex having separate yards, entrances, and school-rooms. Each floor, as is shown in Fig. 2, has a large school-room, to seat 150 pupils, with two class-rooms, (F. G.,) for 48 pupils each, and a gallery-room for 112 of the youngest pupils. All the rooms are ventilated by flues carried up to the roof. The same exterior place will admit of an internal arrangement like that represented in Fig. 3-which will accommodate the same number of pupils, although the greatest number of pupils in any one room is 96. We procured these cuts of the Simcoe School-house from Mr. I. George Hodgins, deputy superintendent of education of Upper Canada, who has published treatise on "The School-house," with a large number of plans. 66 8 to 10, 374. 10 to 12, 377. 12 to 14, 379. burgher schools, 449, 455, 457, 458.
