The Singapore Free Press of sth înst, says : Saturday saw the consummation of the project for which for so long a time Brother Michael the director of St. Joseph's Institution, has worked with undagging energy and persistence, It was appropriate in every sense that the open- ing of the large new school which Brather Michael has for years aimed at pblaining, should come just before the Director is leaving Singapore to take a holiday and rest which.he, greatly needs. During the regime of His Ex“ | cellency Sir John Audemon locreased attention HONGKONG AND SHANGHAI BANK has been drawn to the subject of education in the Colosy, a department-which still suffers from years of cumulative neglect and in tiffer ence. When His Excellency leaves this Colony one of the most notable features of his rules will be the extraordinary growth which has taken place in facilities for education, thanks to the fostering power of his interest and sympathy. In that interest and sympathy Brother Michael and the fostitation, have always had a very large share and Sir John was obviously gratified on Saturday at being able to declare so fine a building open, and practically ready for use, save for a few finishing truches.
Situated on the Waterloo si, side of the block the new school is three staries high and 172 feet long and 37 feet wide, whilst the uniform height of each floor is 14 feet. The foundations of the school are of cement coo- rele, three and a half times the breadth of the walls and p'ers, and they rast on 6,600 Baku piles, giving a factor of safety or is added, to which, is the strength of the six hundred extra piles, and the consolidation of the ground.
