School Arrangements

The school accommodation of Calgary are yet very limited. The expense so far has been borne by private subscription confined to a few friends of education. The school for several terms has been under the charge of Mr. S. Douglas.

The attendance has been steadily increasing, until it was found necessary to increase the room accommodation. The school is at present taught under the town hall, and is attended by upwards of fifty pupils. Last month voting took place on the erection of a school district and the district has been formally organized, so that in a short time a fine school house will be built and a first-class school running.
