CORNER STONE FOR NEW ROSS SCHOOL WILL BE LAID MONDAY
[The Welland Tribune and Telegraph, 10 June 1926]
One of the most important and interesting functions ever to take place in Welland is that scheduled for Monday afternoon at 2 o’clock, when the corner stone for the new Ross school in the North Ward will be laid.
The Minister of Education, Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, has been asked to officiate, and others expected to be present are Inspector Marshall of Niagara Falls, School Inspector James McNiece, Hon. Richard Harcourt, former Minister of Education, G.H. Pettit, M.P., Mark Vaughn, M.P.P., Mayor E.J. Anderson and other civic officials.
The School Board met Tuesday evening when final plans were made for this important ceremony. The Board will be the guests of the Rotary Club at its noon luncheon on Monday, and immediately following this the corner stone will be laid.
The school children of the city will attend, those on the east side of the canal assembling at Central School at 1.30 and marching to the new Ross school in a body.
