P], twenty feet by six — the tables, three feet bv four, for the teachers, ana the closets [Z, Z], for brushes, &c., there are black-boards, painted upon the walls, extending from the doors [D, D] to the windows, fourteen feet lon^ by four wide, with the lines of a stave painted on one end, to aid in givmg instruction in vocal music 152 SCHOOL ARCHITECTURE. The plan of yen dialing these rooms on the first floor is represented by col No. 5, page 85. Every room is provided with two ventilators, e...ach three feet lone by aoout twelve inches wide, opening into flues of the same dimensions, leading into the attic, from which the impure air escapes at circular windows in the gables. These flues should have extended down to the bottom of the rooms, with openings on a level with the floors, so that, when the rooms are warmed with air irom the furnaces above the temperature of the human breath, they might be ventilated by removing the foul air from the lower parts, and thus causing fresh, warm air to be slowly settling down upon the scholars — a very pleasant and healthful mode of ventilation.
